I hope this works well for you. The way things like vitamins and such usually work is there is an initial response and then the body builds a tolerance, after which effects may diminish. Also, everyone's body responds to nutrients differently. It depends upon many factors, including your overall diet. Quickly reading a bit about it, it seems like Biotin (vit B7) is pretty safe in the dosage you're taking, but it wouldn't hurt to discuss it with your MD sometime soon.
From Everyday Health:
"Biotin Warnings
Always check with your doctor before taking any supplement. Some conditions and medications can cause low levels of biotin.
Tell your doctor if you are:
On dialysis
Smoke cigarettes
Eat two or more raw egg whites daily
Take medications for seizures
Have been on a long-term course of antibiotics
Biotin is a safe vitamin that is unlikely to cause side effects."
