My mother is suffering from arthritis. The doctor prescribed her some vitamins and medicines. He has provided one vitamin of fish oil named "maxepa" but I don't understand he has given the dosage of six times each day. Two each after breakfast, lunch and dinner. I just wanted to know is it okay to have it that much or is it bad? Please let me know.
