Regular users of lipoic acid products MIGHT benefit from supplemental d-biotin or d,l-biotin but it is probably wiser to consume biotin at a different time than lipoic acid to insure optimal absorption of both nutrients. It has been demonstrated by several groups of researchers (including Zempleni et al) in this and other studies that lipoic acid, biotin and pantothenic acid utilize at least one of the same transport systems and co-administration results in competition for uptake in various model systems.

This is exactly what I'm doing. If your concern is the B5 competing with RLA, I don't think there's a problem, as:
1. I only take RLA in the morning
2. I take B5 morning & evening (12 hr interval)
3. It's been 8 months (B5), and if the RLA were being interfered with, I would think it would have stopped working and the burning would have returned. It hasn't.
