I was taking about 900 mg. I'm not sure if that is high dose but it was about all I could stomach of those horse pills.If the thyroid hormones are working for you, this is probably a moot point. But fyi I had trouble with those big capsules too, now buy my Fish Oil in a liquid form - it's virtually tasteless, slight citrus, no fishiness. It's 1500 EPA, 500 DHA per tsp. I'm not sure it helps, I have been feeling some improvement but I've also changed up my medications 3 times in last 15 months so may be my most recent AD that is helping. But omega-3's good for other things too, cardiovascular, etc., so I'll keep taking it anyway.
