•Generally safe for most populations, but pregnant women should consult doctors as high-dose omega-3s may affect bleeding risk.
•Potential mild gastrointestinal side effects like fishy burps, minimized by enteric coating and lemon flavor in this formulation.
•Low interaction risk with medications, but may enhance blood thinners like warfarin; monitor INR levels if applicable.
•Sourced from sustainable fish, third-party tested for purity (no heavy metals or PCBs per Nordic Naturals' COA).
