Usage & Dosage

Servings Per Container

Best Time to Take

With meals

Upper Tolerable Limit

Up to 5000mg/day of combined EPA+DHA considered safe by EFSA; doses above 3000mg/day should be medically supervised

Absorption Enhancers

Take with a fat-containing meal to enhance omega-3 absorption; lipase enzyme activity improves uptake of fatty acids

Absorption Inhibitors

High-fiber meals may slightly reduce fat absorption; taking on an empty stomach reduces bioavailability and may increase gastrointestinal side effects

Side Effects

Possible Side Effects

Fishy aftertaste or burping, nausea, loose stools, or mild gastrointestinal discomfort, particularly at higher doses; rare risk of increased bleeding time at doses above 3000mg/day

Toxicity Risk

Low

Upper Tolerable Limit

Up to 5000mg/day of combined EPA+DHA considered safe by EFSA; doses above 3000mg/day should be medically supervised

Interactions

Medication Interactions

May enhance the effect of anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin) and antiplatelet drugs, increasing bleeding risk; may lower blood pressure additively with antihypertensives; may reduce triglycerides additively with statins or fibrates

Supplement Interactions

Additive anticoagulant effect when combined with vitamin E at high doses; may interact with other omega-3 or fish oil supplements leading to excessive intake

Special Populations

Target Population

Adults seeking to support joint health and mobility, including those with active lifestyles or age-related joint concerns.

Take 1 capsule daily by mouth with a meal (preferably with food containing some fat) and water; swallow whole. Do not exceed the labeled dose. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a fish/seafood allergy, have a bleeding disorder, or take anticoagulants/antiplatelets (e.g., warfarin, DOACs, aspirin, clopidogrel), consult a healthcare professional before use; stop and seek advice if unusual bleeding/bruising occurs.
