Nordic Naturals Omega-3 Pet 90 Softgels

Kimmi: How many softgels should a pet get?

Jase: This listing does not provide a usable softgel dose. Its directions are in millilitres and teaspoons and match the liquid product’s weight table, while the panel says one softgel contains 1000mg fish oil and weighs 1500mg overall.

Kimmi: So don’t convert it ourselves?

Jase: Correct. Ask a veterinarian or use the current package directions for the animal’s species and weight. The softgel contains anchovy oil, sardine oil, gelatin, water, glycerin and vitamin E preservative. It is for pets, not people, and the supplied warning says not to exceed the suggested use without veterinary advice.
