Brittle nails and weak hair?

I went to the dermatologist and complained of my SOFT, cracking, brittle nails and how my hair seems to be falling out by the thousands! and he told me to pick up:

APPEAREX from the pharmacy-- I got it at Duane Reede-- in the cosmetics isle near the nail polish.... It is one pill a day with 2.5 mg (2500 mcg) of Biotin-- that is the 'correct' dose for this purpose.


Just thought some of you girls may be interested!
It takes anywhere from 1 month to 6 months to see the difference --& you have to take it everyday.

Hope this helps some of you

Why don't you put nails on for your wedding?
That is, if it doesn't work ...
Just a thought...
