Pet's facial hair won't grow back after ear meds. Is Biotin safe?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Merri has hair loss on her face from eyes to ears from Tresaderm for ea infections since she adopted me 2 years ago; the hair never grew in; can she tolerate Biotin? if not, why not? Is Biotin water soluble? what does that mean, water soluble, have anything to do with her being able to tolerate the supplement? thank you for considering this.

Hi there. In order for us to assist you we would need to know a little more about Merri, including species and age. If you could provide pictures that would also be helpful. Please could you repost your question with more details so that we can better assist you.
