Macoil (Omega-3-Acid Ethyl Esters 90)

The ethyl ester forms of EPA and DHA are absorbed after oral intake and then hydrolyzed to their free fatty‑acid forms. These fatty acids inhibit hepatic VLDL synthesis, increase fatty‑acid β‑oxidation, and enhance clearance of triglyceride‑rich particles, leading to a reduction in circulating triglyceride levels.

The appropriate dose of Macoil is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s triglyceride level, overall cardiovascular risk, and concomitant therapies. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and not adjust the dose without medical guidance.

Safety data for omega-3-acid ethyl esters in pregnancy and lactation are limited. Use is generally reserved for situations where the potential benefit to the mother outweighs any possible risk to the fetus or infant, and only under the direction of a qualified healthcare provider.

To request Macoil, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details (including any cold‑chain requirements) and the necessary import documentation.

Macoil provides omega-3 in the ethyl‑ester form, which may have higher concentration of EPA/DHA per capsule compared with standard fish‑oil triglyceride preparations. Ethyl esters require hydrolysis before absorption, which can be slightly slower, but clinical studies show comparable triglyceride‑lowering efficacy when dosed appropriately.

Macoil should be stored at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C, in its original packaging to protect it from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly closed and out of reach of children. No refrigeration is required for this oral formulation.

Macoil is taken orally, usually with a meal to improve absorption and reduce gastrointestinal discomfort. The exact frequency and number of capsules are set by the prescriber. Swallow the capsules whole with water; do not crush or chew them.

The most serious adverse events associated with omega-3 ethyl esters include acute pancreatitis, severe allergic reactions (such as rash, angioedema, or anaphylaxis), and bleeding complications, especially when combined with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience symptoms such as severe abdominal pain, unexplained bruising, or signs of an allergic reaction.

Macoil should be avoided in individuals with known hypersensitivity to omega-3 fatty acids or any of the product’s excipients. Patients with active bleeding disorders, uncontrolled hypertension, or severe liver disease should consult their physician before starting therapy. It is also contraindicated in those taking high‑dose anticoagulants without close medical supervision.
