HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Omega 3 Krill Oil by Crystal Star

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
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 7 of its 7 active ingredients.
  • “SuperbaBoost Krill Oil” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (2,000 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Crystal Star Omega 3 Krill Oil is a softgel containing 7 active ingredients centered on Antarctic krill extract. The main components are eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid — two omega-3 fatty acids — along with phospholipids, polyunsaturated fat, and total omega-3 fatty acids from the krill itself.

It also includes astaxanthin, a natural red pigment from krill with antioxidant properties, and choline, a nutrient important for cell and brain function. The softgel capsule also contains gelatin, sorbitol, glycerin, and purified water as inactive ingredients.

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.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: heart, brain, eye and liver health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Hyperlipidemia, Hypertriglyceridemia, Heart failure, Stroke, Age-related cognitive decline — and 4 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Choline is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Age-related cognitive decline (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Choline is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Alzheimer disease, Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Cognitive function, Dementia.
  • Also on file: Astaxanthin is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Age-related cognitive decline, Age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

The evidence supporting astaxanthin for age-related cognitive decline, macular degeneration, aging skin, Alzheimer disease, athletic performance, and carpal tunnel syndrome is insufficient to rate it reliably. Choline is rated possibly ineffective for athletic performance, and evidence for its use in bronchitis, cognitive decline, liver fat buildup with IV nutrition, hay fever, and Alzheimer disease is also insufficient.

We hold no effectiveness data for the omega-3 fatty acids in this product.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Astaxanthin Krill Oil Choline

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Astaxanthin is generally well tolerated in studies, though long-term safety data are limited. The most common side effects from astaxanthin are abdominal pain, diarrhea, and red-colored stools; at higher doses, severe stomach pain has been reported.

Choline is well tolerated at food amounts, but high-dose supplements can cause fishy body odor, and doses above 9 grams daily have caused diarrhea, nausea, salivation, and vomiting. Because there isn't enough safety data for astaxanthin during pregnancy and breastfeeding, it's best to avoid it at those times.

Choline is likely safe in pregnancy and is important then, but use only doses advised by your doctor; breastfeeding needs are higher, so use supplements only under professional guidance.

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Choline, Astaxanthin.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 682 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.

If you take any medication metabolized by CYP3A4 or CYP2B6 enzymes — ask your pharmacist if you're unsure — or if you use atropine, check with your doctor or pharmacist before adding this product. We couldn't fully check the krill oil fatty acids themselves, so there may be additional interactions we haven't documented.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

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 krill oil supplement may appeal to you if you're looking for omega-3s and antioxidant support, but be careful if you take medications processed by your liver — astaxanthin may theoretically affect how those drugs work — or if you use atropine. The evidence for astaxanthin's effectiveness for most claimed uses isn't established.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting, especially if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking prescription medications.

Astaxanthin2 drug types · 671 drugs

Cytochrome P450 2B6 (Cyp2B6) Substrates

Theoretically, astaxanthin may decrease levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2B6.
In vitro research shows that astaxanthin induces cytochrome CYP2B6 enzyme activity in human hepatocytes. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, krill oil may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Taking high doses of omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil can modestly decrease platelet aggregation. Since krill oil also contains these fatty acids, taking high doses of krill oil might also inhibit platelet aggregation. Theoretically, taking high doses of krill oil with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs might increase the risk of bleeding. However, the omega-3 content of krill oil is much lower than that of fish oil.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking krill oil with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Some research in animals and humans shows that krill oil might lower blood glucose levels. However, a small study shows that taking krill oil does not reduce blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes, most of whom were taking antidiabetes drugs.

Omega 3 Krill Oil by Crystal Star: Common Questions

Does Omega 3 Krill Oil by Crystal Star interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Omega 3 Krill Oil has a known interaction with 848 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Omega 3 Krill Oil contains 3 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Astaxanthin in this product doesn't have enough safety data for pregnancy or breastfeeding, so it's best to avoid it at those times. Choline is likely safe in pregnancy, but use only the dose your doctor advises. If you're breastfeeding, choline needs are higher — use supplements only under professional guidance. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you.
What are the most common side effects from astaxanthin?
The most common side effects are abdominal pain, diarrhea, and red-colored stools. At higher doses (40 mg daily), severe stomach pain has been reported in a small number of people.
Does choline in this product have side effects?
Choline at typical doses is well tolerated, but very high doses — above 9 grams daily — can cause diarrhea, nausea, sweating, salivation, and vomiting. A fishy body odor is also possible with high-dose choline. The amount in this supplement is likely far lower than these problem doses.
What is astaxanthin supposed to do?
Astaxanthin is a natural red pigment from krill with antioxidant properties. The product claims it may help with age-related cognitive decline, macular degeneration, aging skin, Alzheimer disease, athletic performance, and carpal tunnel syndrome, but the evidence to support these uses is insufficient to rate reliably.
What is choline for in this product?
Choline is a nutrient important for cell function and brain health. The product includes it as one of its active ingredients, though evidence that it helps with most of the claimed uses — like athletic performance, cognitive decline, or Alzheimer disease — is insufficient or shows it may be ineffective.
