Osmega Capsule can cause the following side effects:

Fishy burps or breath: You may notice a fish-like aftertaste or smell in your breath after taking this medicine.
Nausea
Bloating and abdominal discomfort
Diarrhoea

Remember, serious side effects are rare but possible. If you experience signs of easy bruising or bleeding, black stools, or vomiting blood, seek immediate medical attention.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Osmega Capsule. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor. Here are a couple of tips to manage common side effects:

Fishy burps or breath: Taking Osmega Capsule with meals can help reduce this effect.
Bloating and abdominal discomfort: Consider starting with a lower dose to minimise this issue.

Osmega Capsule contains two active ingredients:

Docosahexaenoic Acid (120 mg): This component reduces triglyceride synthesis in the liver by inhibiting key enzymes. Also, it plays a crucial role in supporting the fluidity and function of cell membranes, especially in the brain and retina.
Eicosapentaenoic Acid (180 mg): This ingredient enhances the breakdown of fatty acids via increased mitochondrial and peroxisomal beta-oxidation in the liver. It also aids in reducing inflammation by producing anti-inflammatory compounds like resolvins and protectins.

Together, these ingredients work to manage elevated blood triglyceride levels and contribute to overall health improvement.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking Osmega Capsule if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Use of Osmega Capsule during breastfeeding should be avoided. If you are lactating, discuss this with your doctor before starting this medicine.

Liver

Caution is advised while taking Osmega Capsule in case of mild to moderate liver impairment. It is not recommended for severe liver diseases. If you have liver problems, discuss them with your doctor before starting this medicine.

Kidney

If you have a history of kidney problems, it is advisable to consult your doctor before taking Osmega Capsule.

Using Machines & Driving

Allergy

If you are allergic to fish or shellfish, be cautious as Osmega Capsule is derived from fish oil. If you have known hypersensitivity to any component of the medicine, avoid using this capsule.

Children

Osmega Capsule is designed for adult use. It's always advisable to consult your doctor before giving any medication to children under 18 years of age.

Older Patients
