The best thing to do is speak with a dermatologist or primary care doctor before starting any supplement. They can recommend the right form, dosage, and brand based on your specific treatment plan and health needs.

A few general tips when choosing any supplement:

- Look for products that have been third-party tested for quality and purity
- Check that the label clearly lists ingredients and dosages
- Be cautious of supplements making big health claims without solid research behind them
- Never replace a prescribed medication with a supplement without your doctor's approval
