HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Omega 3-6-9 Vegan Formula by Amvilab
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
Low disclosure
This vegan omega formula contains 5 active ingredients: oleic acid, linoleic acid, alpha-linolenic acid, other fatty acids, and phytonutrients, plus flaxseed oil. Together they deliver a plant-based blend of essential and other fatty acids.
The inactive ingredients are hydroxymethyl starch, glycerin, and purified water — these are the capsule binders and fillers.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
Oleic acid — the one ingredient we have effectiveness data for — is rated possibly effective for high cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia) and coronary heart disease (CHD). The evidence isn't conclusive, but research supports its potential benefit for heart health.
We don't have effectiveness ratings in our data for the other active ingredients in this formula.
How safe is it?
Some data gaps
Oleic acid is generally recognized as safe when you get it from foods like olive oil. At food amounts, it's fine during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but supplement-level doses haven't been well studied in pregnancy or lactation, so the safety data advises caution.
We have no adverse effects listed for oleic acid. Safety data for the other four active ingredients isn't on file with us.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
If you take antidiabetes drugs (blood sugar medications), check your specific medications with the interaction tool before you start — oleic acid may increase their effects. No other medication types show documented interactions with the ingredients we were able to check.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.
This formula may appeal to anyone looking for a vegan source of plant-based omega fatty acids, especially if you're interested in heart health support. If you take blood sugar medication, talk with your pharmacist before starting — oleic acid might strengthen how well it works.
For any other questions about how this fits your health goals, we're here to help.

For each ingredient in Omega 3-6-9 Vegan Formula 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.
