Questions we get asked

Does biotin help with hair fall?

Our guide Hair fall: common causes and what helps explains what the evidence says about biotin and hair vitamins.

Collagen or biotin?

They are different supplements, and some people take both. Our guide Collagen supplements: powder, tablets or drinks? compares collagen forms.

How long before I see a difference?

Follow the directions on the pack. Hair and nails grow slowly, so most packs suggest taking them for several weeks. Not sure which suits you? Ask a BMG pharmacist in any branch or on 800 2647.
