Omega Forte is a double-strength Omega-3, 6 and 9 supplement derived from fish and flaxseed oil, supporting healthy skin, a shiny coat, joint comfort and cardiovascular health in dogs and cats.
Composition: Per gel cap: Alpha Linolenic Acid (ALA) 178mg, Linoleic Acid (LA) 171.6mg, Oleic Acid (OA) 145mg, Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) 120mg, Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) 80mg, Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) 72.8mg, d-alpha Tocopherol (Vitamin E) 10 IU.
Indications: Dry, itchy or flaky skin; dull or shedding coat; supportive care for joint comfort; supports healthy cholesterol and triglyceride levels for cardiovascular health.
Dosage: 1 tablet per 10-20kg body weight, once daily (sources vary between 10kg and 20kg per tablet bands - confirm the exact current-label dosing before publishing).
Directions for use: Give directly as a treat or mixed into food, once daily.
How does the medicine work: Omega-3s (EPA/DHA) and Omega-6 (GLA/LA) reduce skin inflammation and support the skin's lipid barrier for a healthier coat, while also supporting joint comfort and helping maintain healthy cholesterol/triglyceride levels.
Possible side effects: Generally well tolerated; as with any fish-oil-based product, monitor for mild GI upset when first introduced.
