Biot is prescribed for:
- Hair loss
- Weak, brittle, splitting, or soft nails
- Eczema and dermatitis
Biotin, also known as vitamin H, is crucial in key physiological functions such as fatty acid synthesis, amino acid catabolism, and gluconeogenesis. It acts as a cofactor in enzymatic carboxylation of pyruvate and acetyl-CoA. Biotin supports the growth and differentiation of epidermal cells, essential for forming and renewing skin, hair, and nails. It serves as a coenzyme for mitochondrial carboxylases in hair roots, improving keratin structure. Biotin deficiency can lead to hair loss and systemic symptoms like dermatitis and aciduria. It is commonly prescribed for various types of hair loss.
