<p><b>New page</b></p><div>===Factors that affect biotin requirements===<br />
Chronic alcohol use is associated with a significant reduction in plasma biotin. Intestinal biotin uptake also appears to be sensitive to the effect of the anti-[[epilepsy]] drugs [[carbamazepine]] and [[primidone]]. Relatively low levels of biotin have also been reported in the urine or plasma of patients who have had a partial [[gastrectomy]] or have other causes of [[achlorhydria]], as well as burn patients, elderly individuals, and athletes. Pregnancy and [[lactation]] may be associated with an increased demand for biotin. In pregnancy, this may be due to a possible acceleration of biotin [[catabolism]], whereas, in lactation, the higher demand has yet to be elucidated. Recent studies have shown marginal biotin deficiency can be present in [[human gestation]], as evidenced by increased urinary excretion of [[beta-Hydroxy beta-methylbutyric acid|3-hydroxyisovaleric acid]], decreased urinary excretion of biotin and bisnorbiotin, and decreased plasma concentration of biotin.</div>FuzzyBot
