• Has participated in another clinical trial (randomised participants only) within 30 days prior to the first dose of study medication.
• Has used prescription medication (excluding oral contraceptive and hormonal replacement therapy) within 4 weeks of screening or OTC medication within 7 days before the first dose that may affect omega-3 absorption or any study outcomes. This may include, but is not limited to: high-dose NSAIDs, bile acid sequestrants, statins, GLP-1 receptor agonists, anticoagulants and anti-inflammatory drugs. Occasional ibuprofen, paracetamol and low-dose aspirin use is permitted.
