PrincessAriel Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 If your child is taking these in capsule form, do you give them 3 a day? I am assuming the capsules are for children as well as adults. My child is 11, about 95 lbs. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My child is 11, about 95 lbs. Thanks! You want the full serving to get the 1025mg of EPA. That is the 3 capsules per day. I would either give it 3 times a day (my girls were already taking meds 3 times a day) or 2 in the morning and 1 at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca VA Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 I give my child (age 13, 105 lbs.) three capsules a day. She probably wouldn't be able to tolerate more than that very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ottakee Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Just a hint. Start out with 1 per day for a few days, then go to 2 per day and up to 3. The fish oils can cause loose stools in the beginning, esp. if starting with the 3 per day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
