Which biotins?

Here are the different brands of biotin I am using, along with pros and cons:

Pros - states that it is d-biotin, no fillers
Cons - need 40x per day for 200 mg $7 / day at today's price

Pros - states it is d-biotin, $2.50 per day or so, fillers not too bad
Cons - not cheapest, some inactives

Cons - doesn't state d-biotin, contains calcium and magnesium stearate
Wish I hadn't ordered 3 bottles of these - will probably mix them in though

    I won't order any more that don't explicitly state "as d-biotin"

    Haven't decided whether to use what I already have. For now I'll note which form in the logs.

    I have settled in on the Nature's Bounty as the best compromise between cost and avoidance of nasty fillers. 200 mg per day for about 45 days now.

    I have PPMS at 8.0 on the EDSS and have decided to try this. Would the Nature's Bounty option mean 20 tablets a day to reach 200 mg? Thanks.
