HI,

I can understand your concern for the hair fall.

RIOTIN PLUS Tablet contains Acetylcysteine, Calcium Pantothenate, Selenium, Zinc, Biotin, Copper as active ingredients. These same ingredients are [renst in certain tablets such as H-vit forte, xtraglow, keraglow and essvit forte. You can take vitamins in the form of biotin, calicium pantothenate and other vitamin B complexes.

Additionally increase you protein intake on daily basis and eat sprouts. Eat a lot of green leafy vegetables and sprouts which contains vitamins and minerals necessary for normal hair function.You should consult a dermatologist and take guidance so that long term use can be maintained.

Take care.
