I know I risk angering people here, but like most supplements this will just make your pee strong (and expensive).
A mcg is a microgram, there are 1000 mcg in a mg (milligram). There are 1000 mg in a gram. A mcg is one one-millionth of a gram.
A note on Biotin from wiki...
Biotin supplements are often recommended as a natural product to counteract the problem of hair loss in both children and adults. There are, however, no studies that show any benefit in any case where the subject is not actually biotin deficient. The signs and symptoms of biotin deficiency include hair loss which progresses in severity to include loss of eye lashes and eye brows in severely deficient subjects. Some shampoos are available that contain biotin, but it is doubtful whether they would have any useful effect, as biotin is not absorbed well through the skin.
Please don't waste your money.
good luck!
