HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Flax Oil 1,000 mg by LuckyVitamin

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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 30, 2026

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 3 of its 3 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This softgel contains three ingredients: polyunsaturated fat, monounsaturated fat, and organic flaxseed oil. The flaxseed oil is the active component — it's a source of alpha-linolenic acid and omega-3 fatty acids.

The other ingredients in the capsule itself are bovine gelatin, glycerin, water, and caramel color, which are fillers and binders that hold the softgel together.

Does it work?

Not established
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Flaxseed Oil's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: omega-3 fatty acid source.
  • We looked for evidence on: Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Hyperlipidemia, Hypertension, Dry skin, Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), inflammation — and 1 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Flaxseed Oil is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Hyperlipidemia (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Flaxseed Oil is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
  • Also on file: Flaxseed Oil is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Dry skin, Hypertension.

The evidence for flaxseed oil in this product is mixed and limited. For the conditions that have been studied — obesity, rheumatoid arthritis, bipolar disorder, and high cholesterol — the data we hold shows possibly ineffective ratings.

That means the clinical evidence doesn't support a benefit, though it doesn't rule one out entirely. If you're considering this for any of those reasons, talk with your doctor about what the research actually shows and whether it's worth trying.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Flaxseed Oil

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Flaxseed oil is generally well tolerated by most adults when taken by mouth. A small number of people — roughly 3% in studies — reported a change in bowel habits, dry mouth, or indigestion at a dose of about 5 grams daily.

Higher doses (30 grams per day and above) have been linked to loose stools and diarrhea. Serious allergic reactions like anaphylaxis are rare but possible.

There isn't enough reliable safety data to know for certain whether this product is safe for you personally, so check with your doctor before starting it.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Flaxseed Oil

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Flaxseed Oil.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 293 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take blood thinners (anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs) — flaxseed oil may increase bleeding risk. Also flag if you're on blood pressure medications, since flaxseed oil may lower blood pressure further.

And if you take ezetimibe (Zetia), let them know, because it can block absorption of the active ingredient from this supplement.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product is generally well tolerated, but the interactions with blood thinners, blood pressure drugs, and ezetimibe are real concerns worth discussing with your doctor or pharmacist. The effectiveness evidence for obesity, arthritis, bipolar disorder, and high cholesterol is not strong.

If you take any prescription medications, check them against the tool on this page before you start.

Formula

Flax oil is a natural reservoir for the omega-3 fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). ALA is considered an essential fatty acid because the body cannot make it from other fats and must obtain it from the diet. Flax oil has not been shown to support cardiovascular health and to promote the maintenance of healthy skin. This flax seed oil has been specially pressed to be as close to the original oil in the seed as possible. Extreme care has been taken in bringing this product to market in softgel form, which seals in the oil and protects it from oxidation and contamination.

Made with Organic Flax Oil with Essential Omega-3s

Each serving may also have the following naturally occurring amounts of polyunsaturated fats and monounsaturated fats: Linolenic Acid (Omega-3) 55%; Linoleic Acid (Omega-6) 14%; Oleic Acid (Omega-9) 19%; Other (Saturated) 12%.

organic Flax seed Oil3 drug types · 293 drugs

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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.
