Experiencing a fishy aftertaste

Mild digestive upset (e.g., bloating, heartburn)

Take the capsule with a meal rather than on an empty stomach. Ensure you are drinking enough water. If symptoms persist, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.

Capsule is difficult to swallow

Ensure you are taking the capsule with a sufficient amount of water. If difficulty persists, consult the retailer or manufacturer for alternative formats if available.
