Walgreens Biotin 5000 mcg is a single-vitamin supplement primarily focused on biotin, commonly used for hair, skin, and nail support. Each tablet provides 5000mcg of Biotin, which is considered a clinically studied dose for certain applications. Additionally, it contains 55mg of Calcium, which is underdosed for typical calcium supplementation purposes. The product received an N+ Score of 57, earning an 'F' grade due to its limited ingredient profile and the underdosed secondary ingredient.
