Whether you choose the <a href=\"\/\/www.murad.com\/product\/bright-even-supplement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bright &amp; Even Supplement<\/a> to brighten and add radiance; the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.murad.com\/product\/youth-renewal-supplement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Youth Renewal Supplement<\/a> to smooth, firm and reduce lines; or the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.murad.com\/product\/clear-skin-supplement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Clear Skin Supplement<\/a> to help eliminate acne, here are the answers to all the hot topics we&#8217;ve heard.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are Murad Supplements non-GMO, vegan, free of artificial colorants and gluten-free?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why is there a tablet inside a gel capsule?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We pioneered the advanced tablet-in-capsule technology (the first of its kind in the skincare industry) to allow for better potency, absorption and delivery of\u202fskin-improving ingredients\u202ffor hydration and targeted skin\u202fconcerns. This technology also allows fat- and water-soluble ingredients to co-exist in one easy-to-swallow pill\u2014all without questionable additives, fillers or colorants.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long will one bottle last?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One bottle contains 60 capsules. Take 2 pills a day and your bottle will last 30 days.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long do I need to take these supplements to see results?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Participants in our clinical trials started to see results after just one month! However, it can take up to 3 months to see results\u2014but this isn\u2019t much different than any topical skincare regimen! (Results may vary.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">I want to tackle different skin issues at once. Can I take different Murad Supplements at the same time?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend focusing on one supplement regimen so you can see results that align to our clinical results.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">After I see results, should I continue to take the supplements?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Great question, and yes! Like any skincare regimen, daily maintenance is essential to skin health.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why does the gel vary in color?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s perfectly natural to have slight variations in color due to our use of plant-derived ingredients and botanicals. Our ingredients are standardized to ensure potency and efficacy from pill to pill and bottle to bottle, and the color variation doesn\u2019t impact safety or performance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I take these supplements if I\u2019m already taking a multivitamin?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Our supplements follow the recommended daily value intake of vitamins, minerals and nutrients. While our supplements have undergone rigorous testing for efficacy and safety, we know the most personal and accurate advice comes directly from your physician. Always consult a medical professional before starting any supplement or wellness regimen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do I need to consult with my doctor before taking supplements?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While our supplements have undergone rigorous testing for efficacy and safety, we recommend speaking to your doctor before starting a supplement regimen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I take these supplements if I have allergies?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While our supplements have undergone rigorous testing for efficacy and safety, we recommend speaking to your doctor before starting a supplement regimen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I take these supplements while pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or while breastfeeding?&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While our supplements have undergone rigorous testing for efficacy and safety, we know the most personal and accurate advice comes directly from your physician. Speak to your OBGYN or medical professional before starting any supplement or wellness regimen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I take these supplements that contain vitamin A if I\u2019m also using a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.murad.com\/search\/search-results\/?keywords=retinol\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">topical vitamin A treatment<\/a>?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While our supplements have undergone rigorous testing for efficacy and safety, we recommend speaking to your doctor before starting a supplement regimen that contains vitamin A to determine if a vitamin A supplement is right for you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I take these if I\u2019m under the age of 18?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While our supplements have undergone rigorous testing for efficacy and safety, we know the most personal and accurate advice comes directly from your physician. Always consult a medical professional before starting any supplement or wellness regimen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will these supplements work better if I follow a skincare regimen?&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes! Dr. Howard Murad, board-certified dermatologist, pharmacist and founder of Murad Skincare says, \u201cTreating the skin as an isolated component of the body is like using a small brush to touch up the paint on a house with a bad foundation.\u201d That\u2019s why, for more than 30 years, he\u2019s advised his patients to look at skin health as a 3-part strategy that includes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.murad.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">topical skincare<\/a>, emotional skincare, and internal skincare via supplements and nutrition. Together, these strategies help promote the health of your cells for healthier-looking skin.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love these supplements and want a skincare regimen to match?
