Why this happens
Biotin is a B-vitamin (B7) that helps the body convert nutrients into energy and supports the production of keratin. Collagen is a structural protein that provides the 'building blocks' for skin and joints. They do not interfere with each other's absorption, metabolism, or excretion.
What you should do
It is safe to take these together. However, be aware that high doses of biotin can interfere with certain medical blood tests (such as thyroid or heart enzyme tests). If you are due to have a blood test, tell your doctor or the lab staff that you are taking a biotin supplement.

Can I take Esomeprazole and Magnesium together?
Taking esomeprazole for a long time (usually more than three months) can lower the levels of magnesium in your blood. This can lead to symptoms like tiredness, muscle spasms, or an irregular heartbeat. Additionally, if you take magnesium as an antacid or supplement at the same time as esomeprazole, it might slightly interfere with how well the medicine is absorbed.
