Can You Take Vitamin B5 and Biotin Together?

May affect absorption

The short answer

Pantothenic acid (B5) and biotin (B7) share the same intestinal transporter (SMVT). High doses of one may reduce absorption of the other.

How to arrange timing

At standard B-complex doses this is not significant. Separate by 1-2 hours if taking megadoses.

Important context

Whether supplements suit you together also depends on dose, product formulation, health conditions, and medication use. Ask a doctor or pharmacist first if you take medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a chronic condition.
