Fish oil: It probably wouldn't cause headaches but if you are on a few medications, the interactions are hard to predict.

Unsure: You can use an interaction checker when you have questions about drug interactions with herbal or natural medications. Here is one example: http://naturaldatabase.therapeuticresearch.com/nd/search.aspx?s=nd&pt=7
