Biotin, the active component, belongs to the group of water-soluble vitamins of the B group.

Biotin deficiency can cause symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis (skin eruption with inflammation and scaling), alopecia (hair loss), or glossitis (inflammatory lesion of the tongue). The need for biotin may be increased in cases such as patients undergoing prolonged treatment with antiepileptics and in parenteral nutrition (by a route other than the digestive tract) that is not properly supplemented. It is also indicated for the treatment of biotin metabolism disorders.
