A member asked:

Is it normal to feel nausea after taking the fish oil supplement?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not uncommon, but...: I frequently hear patient's complain of intolerance to fish oil. However, please consider the many other causes of nausea (see my earlier healthtap answers), and seek evaluation appropriate to your risk factors.
