Dear Doctor I am a diabetic patient with 9 years history and on regular medicines. I am taking whey protein while doing body building. Diabetes is in almost control. Now can I start fish oil tablets 1000 my twice in the day? Is this advisable.

Mr. Lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. It would have been better if you had mentioned current fasting, PP glucose levels & HbA1c%, medicines taken with dosage, lipid profile, in stead of saying "diabetes is in almost control" Because the parameters considered may differ. As regards the fish oil tablets you might take them, just once a day, excess is of no real benefit. Thanks. "diabetes
