Can Using Perfectil Tablets Cause Acne?

I m 18, height 5 1, weight 46kg and I m a girl. Though all of that is irrelevant. The problem is that my hair is not growing at all so I want to start taking Perfectil tablets. But I m scared that it will cause acne since it has iodine and biotin and I heard those cause acne though I m not sure? Is it safe to take Perfectil tablets and are you sure it wouldn t cause acne?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

You would need to consider the iodine aspect though the amount in the supplement should not be excessive.
Excess iodine can affect thyroid function.

It is likely that the dose in the supplement should be in normal range but this is the only area of concern.
It should not affect acne.

I hope this helps
