HelloPharmacist Scorecard of 100% Organic Flaxseed Oil 2000 by tnvitamins
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This softgel contains 7 active ingredients—all fatty acids and lipids that make up flaxseed oil itself. The main ones documented here are oleic acid, linoleic acid, alpha-linolenic acid, and polyunsaturated and saturated fats (palmitic and stearic acids).
The softgels also contain inactive ingredients: gelatin, glycerin, purified water, caramel, and DL-alpha-tocopheryl acetate (a form of vitamin E used as a preservative).
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
Oleic acid in this product is rated possibly effective for lowering cholesterol and supporting heart health based on preliminary evidence. The other active fatty acids don't have established effectiveness ratings in our data, so we can't speak to what research shows about their individual benefits.
How safe is it?
Some data gaps
Oleic acid is generally recognized as safe when you get it from everyday foods like olive oil. At supplement-level doses, though, the safety picture isn't clear—especially in pregnancy and breastfeeding.
The data notes that food amounts are fine, but concentrated supplements haven't been well studied in these populations. No adverse effects have been documented in the data we hold.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this if you're on any diabetes medication (the kind taken by mouth). Oleic acid may increase how well those drugs work, which could drop your blood sugar lower than intended.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.
If you have type 2 diabetes and take blood-sugar medications, this product warrants a conversation with your doctor or pharmacist before you start—the oleic acid could enhance those drugs' effects. Otherwise, most people tolerate it well, though long-term safety at supplement doses isn't fully established.
If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, talk it over with your own healthcare provider first, since safety data is thin.

100% Organic Flaxseed Oil 2000 by tnvitamins Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
100% Organic Flaxseed Oil 2000 by tnvitamins contains oleic acid, which has documented interactions with diabetes medications.
Oleic acid may increase the effects of antidiabetes drugs (the kind you take by mouth for type 2 diabetes), which could lower your blood glucose more than expected. This is based on preliminary research showing that diets rich in oleic acid from olive oil produce lower fasting blood sugar compared to diets higher in other oils.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Several ingredients in this product—stearic acid, linoleic acid, alpha-linolenic acid, polyunsaturated fat, palmitic acid, and other fatty acids—we could not check because we hold no interaction data for them. That doesn't mean they're free of interactions; it means the monographs aren't on file.
Although oleic acid is one component, altogether these interactions span 86 individual medications. If you take any diabetes medication, run your exact drugs through the search tool below before starting this supplement.

For each ingredient in 100% Organic Flaxseed Oil 2000 with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Flaxseed Oil
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, using flaxseed oil in combination with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs might have additive effects and increase the risk of bleeding.
Small clinical studies show that consuming flaxseed oil might decrease platelet aggregation and increase bleeding time.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, combining flaxseed oil with other antihypertensive drugs might have additive effects and increase the risk of hypotension.
Some clinical evidence suggests that long-term consumption of flaxseed oil can modestly lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure, while other clinical research shows no effect.
Ezetimibe (Zetia)
Concomitant use of flaxseed oil and ezetimibe reduces the absorption of alpha-linolenic acid from flaxseed oil.
In one clinical study, concomitant consumption of ezetimibe 10 mg daily with flaxseed oil 2 grams providing 1 gram of alpha-linolenic acid daily blocked the absorption of alpha-linolenic acid, resulting in an overall reduction in alpha-linolenic plasma levels from baseline.
