Study Summary
Many patients complain of fishy breath, upset stomach, or heartburn when taking the recommended amount of fish oil. A common recommendation made by pharmacists is to freeze the fish oil capsules to help decrease adverse gastrointestinal effects. Compliance with over-the-counter (OTC) fish oil is a concern considering the high number of capsules taken daily. The hypothesis of this study is that taking fish oil with milk will help lead to better patient compliance with no difference in adverse effects versus other administration methods.
