Can I have my biotin supplement 10000 mcg with milk or is that a no-go? And is it true that taking 10000 mcg of biotin every day might actually cause hair loss?

Biotin Dosage: Taking a 10,000 mcg biotin supplement is generally safe but is a high dose. Most people get sufficient biotin from their diet.
-
Milk Interaction: Biotin is water-soluble and does not typically interact negatively with milk.
-
Consultation: It's advisable to consult a healthcare provider before starting high-dose supplements, especially if experiencing hair loss.
-
Lab Tests: Inform your healthcare provider about biotin intake as it can interfere with certain lab tests.

View allI've got a wheatish, sensitive combination skin and earlier I was using Dermadew Aloe lotion as a night cream because my dermatologist recommended it. But honestly, I haven't seen much improvement in my skin tone. I recently came across something called Dermadew GLOW cream. Do you think it's safe for me to use it regularly for clearer, glowing skin?
Dermadew Glow cream is a good option for improving skin tone and achieving a clearer, glowy skin. It contains ingredients like Kojic acid, Arbutin, Liquorice extract, Vitamin E, and Allantoin which help in brightening the skin and reducing pigmentation. You can apply a thin layer of Dermadew Glow cream on cleansed skin at night before bedtime. Remember to use sunscreen during the day while using this cream to protect your skin from sun damage.

I'm really worried about some medication I'm on. I'm taking Atarax at night and Allegra 180 in the mornings, and I've been on them for about 30 days now. I've also taken Atarax 25 twice a day for 40 days, Allegra 180 and levocetirizine for 15 days, Atarax 25 again but once a day for 10 days, Prutrax 50mg for 10 days, and Polaramine 5mg for 10 days. I've started noticing more urticaria appearing, and I'm concerned it might be because of this medication schedule. Can this mix of medications increase the risk of hives if taken for longer periods? Would love some advice on what to do next.
Taking Atarax at night and Allegra 180 in the morning for a longer period of 30 days can potentially lead to hives due to the combination of antihistamines. The prolonged use of these medications can sometimes paradoxically lead to worsening of symptoms such as urticaria. It is important to consult your doctor for proper evaluation and management of your condition.
