2) Where will i be able to get Biotin tablet?

Brief Answer:
Latest hair serum with biotin and good diet
Detailed Answer:
Hello Young buddy,
Welcome again to the forum and thankss for your follow up.
Regarding your further follow up:
1. I can see one important part in your query that you have a history of headache. In these cases I do not prefer minoxidil lotion as it can cause headache. Minoxidil lotion increases blood flow and this on one side helps in hair growth but in some case it can cause mild to moderate headache. In those cases who are prone for headache I prefer to apply a latest lotion containing Acetyl Tetra peptide- 3, Biochanin A with Inositol & ethyl panthenol (available as Q Sera lotion). These all compounds have synergistic action to Inhibits 5 α reductase(the enzyme which cause falling of hair) by which prevents miniaturization of hair follicle, stimulating hair roots to grow fast.
2. Biotin tablets are easily available in market ( as Hairbless or Hvit forte or VB7 forte). This is to be taken after meals.
3. A combined approach of diet with medications starts showing results in 3-4 months period. You will observe a reduced falling of hair and in around 6 months we see new hair growth.
Follow a good diet regimes and reduce your stress level to have full benefit.
I hope this information will help you. I will be glad to guide you any further.
