Can I take Biotin and Isosorbide mononitrate together?

Why this happens

Biotin is a water-soluble vitamin that acts as a coenzyme for carboxylase enzymes. Isosorbide mononitrate is a vasodilator that releases nitric oxide. These two substances do not share the same metabolic pathways (enzymes) in the liver, nor do they have opposing or additive effects on blood pressure or heart rate.

You can safely take biotin and isosorbide mononitrate together. However, you should always inform your doctor or pharmacist about all supplements you are taking. Note: High doses of biotin can interfere with certain laboratory blood tests (such as troponin tests used to diagnose heart attacks). If you need blood tests related to your heart condition, tell the medical staff you are taking biotin.
