How much alpha-lipoic acid should I take daily?

Thorne's suggested use is one 300 mg capsule two to three times daily, or as recommended by your health-care practitioner. A common daily amount is 300 to 600 mg in divided doses. Higher daily amounts should be supervised by a clinician.

Should I take alpha-lipoic acid with food or on an empty stomach?

It can be taken on an empty stomach or with a small meal. If you are also on thyroid medication, separate doses by at least 4 hours.

What are common side effects of alpha-lipoic acid?

Mild nausea, heartburn, or headache are the most common. Taking with a small meal usually settles stomach upset. If you take any prescription medications, review the warnings below or consult your clinician.

Do I need to take biotin with alpha-lipoic acid?

It is a reasonable precaution. Alpha-lipoic acid can compete with biotin transport, so a standard multivitamin or 30 to 100 mcg biotin daily is an easy hedge, especially at higher intakes.
