Nioxin Pills - Doubling?

[Victory1]

For those of you who are taking 2 pills a day; are you taking both at the same time or spreading the time in between for a few hours before taking the other pill?

Excellent question. I would like to know too. I currently take nioxin and have only been using it for about a week. So far I'm sprending them out. One in the morning one in the evening. But I would like to get some more feedback on this aswell.

I have been taking two nioxin pills for 4 weeks and I have noticed way more ng...I am currently 6 weeks post relax and I have never had this much ng in six weeks..I usually get this amt of ng in my 8 weekth...my ng also seems to be coming in more softer and thicker...I would love to post a picture but I am in the Hide Hair TiL XMAS Challenge...I take two pills at night time....HTH

I started back taking mine yesterday but took them earlier in the year during a Nioxin challenge. I split mine up so I would take one at mid day, and the other at bed time.

I am taking the same way this time also.

I just started taking Nioxin yesterday...(I'm so excited because of all the good things I hear about it)...But anyway, I take one at lunch time (mid-day) and one at night...along with all my other vits.

It is always better to spread vitamins throughout the day for best absorption. I take one Nioxin in the morning and one in the early evening. Just an FYI... if you are taking lots of vitamins just be mindful that when your body gets its fill, it will flush out whatever it doesn't need. If you find yourself "going" frequently, it is probably a sign that your body is flushing out unwanted vitamin and mineral deposits. Spreading your vitamins throughout the day sometimes helps.

I take one in the morning and one at night. Just so you ladies know, Nioxin is on sale at Ulta's until September 2nd (buy 1 get 1 free)

I do go to the bathroom frequently and for a minute there I thought I was pregnant...yewwwwww...I'm glad to know it's from the pills but I will continue to take my pills together at night time because it's working for me as far as growth....also that is good to know that my body is flushing out the vitamins that I do not need therefore I do not have to worry about consuming too much vitamins AND my hair is still growing...I currently have 6 weeks of ng that actually looks like I am 8 weeks...I have never had this much ng at 6 weeks before taking these vits...it's working for me....

Now I don't know what to believe! I've heard the opposite from so called health experts. I've heard if you take them all at once, your body can only use so much, therefore expelling the rest. However since the vitamins stay in your system a while, by the time you take the next dose, they are still in your system so you might as well get the maximum dose.
I can't even say I know which actually works better because it doesnt cause me to go to the washroom more.

I split my Nioxin as well.... one in the morning, one in the evening. I split all my vitamins the same way.

I started off with one pill a day and gradually increased to two pills at the same time per day. I have to say that it did increase my growth "a little bit". I've come to the determination that my hair is growing fine about 1/4 to 1/2 inch a month. I'd like to see a 1/2" per month all the time.

I take one in the morning and one in the evening or right before I go to bed. I didn't notice any results for the first 2 months but now I do. I also drink plenty of water with them.

Oh lordy if it's not WHAT pill it's how many to take and when to take them? I can't cope. Growing hair is a FT job within itself. I'm gonna carry on taking 2 at bed time and do this for say 3 months and see what happens. I plan to give Nioxing a full 6 month trial before ruling them out.

I take 2 pills along with the rest of my pills at night. I take my pills at night because that is the time I am less busy and will remember to take them before I go to bed. I bought a year's supply but since I take 2 a day they will last me 6 months. I will continue to use these pills until they are gone but more than likely I will continue to use them because my ng is coming in faster and thicker. It's definitely a keeper for me.

anyone had any side effects from taking more than one nioxin vit a day? I don't think I'm gonna risk it because of the side effect I had from taking too much biotin.

What was your side effects from taking biotin? If, you don't mind me asking? I have not had any side effects yet from the nioxin vitamins.

I don't mind at all

I took biotin (purchased @ walmart spring valley brand) for about 2-3 months. The first month was fine and it really made my hair grow/thicken. I didn't have any trouble with breakouts either.
I ran out and didn't take any for about 2 weeks and as soon as I started the new bottle my face broke out really bad. I wouldn't say like a pizza or anything because the bumps were on both sides of my face. Then I noticed I really hadn't been drinking alot of water with the new bottle and alot of members experienced the same problem. Thought increasing my water would help but it didn't. I finally just stopped taking them because the breakouts wouldn't stop.

I'm still taking two a day. I think I'm at about 1/2 inch a month. Without Nioxin my hair only grows about 1/4 inch a month. This stuff also makes my eyebrows and nails grow much faster.
