19. Existence of any surgical or medical condition which in the judgement of principal investigator designee might interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism or elimination of the study drug, or, is likely to compromise the safety of subject.
20. Intake or administration of any enzyme modifying drugs such as cimetidine, ampicillin, antihistamines, within 30 days of Period I admission. In such cases, subject selection will be at the discretion of the Principal Investigator or medical officer.
21. Intake or administration of drugs which mentioned below have interaction with Omega 3 fatty acid within last 30 days of Period I admission. In such cases, subject selection will be at the discretion of the Principal Investigator or medical officer.
• Anticoagulants and Antiplatelets (e.g., Warfarin, Aspirin, Clopidogrel, Heparin): May enhance the risk of bleeding due to omega 3 mild antiplatelet effect. Monitoring is required for individuals on blood thinners.
• Antihypertensive Drugs (e.g., ACE inhibitors, Beta blockers, Calcium channel blockers, Diuretics): Omega 3 fatty acids may enhance blood pressure lowering effects, increasing the risk of hypotension.
• Lipid lowering Agents (e.g., Statins, Fibrates, Ezetimibe) May have an additive effect in reducing triglycerides but could also slightly raise LDL cholesterol in some individuals.
• Immunosuppressants (e.g., Cyclosporine, Tacrolimus) High doses of omega 3s may suppress immune function, potentially affecting immunosuppressive therapy.
• Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) (e.g., Ibuprofen, Naproxen, Diclofenac) May increase the risk of bleeding when combined due to their overlapping effects on platelet function.
• Oral Hypoglycemic Agents and Insulin (e.g., Metformin, Sulfonylureas, Insulin) Omega 3 fatty acids may improve insulin sensitivity, which could enhance the glucose lowering effects of these medications, requiring dosage adjustments.
• Hormone Therapy and Oral Contraceptives Estrogen containing contraceptives or hormone replacement therapy may counteract the triglyceride lowering effect of omega 3 fatty acids.
22. Intake or administration of any prescription, antacids or OTC drug including vitamins and natural supplements within 30 days of Period I admission. In such cases, subject selection will be at the discretion of the Principal Investigator or medical officer.
23. Intake of unusual diet for two weeks prior to admission of period I and not willing to avoid consumption of such diet till the completion of close out visit of the study. In such cases, subject selection will be at the discretion of the Principal Investigator or designee.
24. Difficulty in swallowing capsules.

TimePoints
Safety of the study subjects will also be monitored and evaluated.
Sitting blood pressure, pulse rate, respiratory rate, and body surface temperature will be recorded at check-in and before check-out in each period. Measurements of blood pressure, pulse rate, and body surface temperature will be taken in sitting/supine position at pre-dose (0:00), and at 3, 5, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours (±40 minutes) post-dose.
AE/SAE monitoring will be conducted throughout the study.

Brief Summary
Single dose oral comparative bioavailability study of Omega-3 Fatty Acid in healthy adult human subjects under fasting conditions and the objective of the study is to compare the bioavailability, to characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of the Test Product (T) [Vytals Fish Oil SMEDs Softgel Capsule (Each 1 g softgel contain 338mg EPA and 225mg DHA) of Alder Biochem Private Limited, India] with Reference Product (R) [Plain Fish Oil Softgel Capsule (Each 750mg softgel capsule contain 338mg EPA and 225mg DHA) of Alder Biochem Private Limited, India].
Conducted at a single center, open label, randomized, balanced, two-treatment, two-sequence, two-period, single dose, two-way crossover study involves 20 subjects. Each participant will receive both treatments in a randomized order with a washout period of at least 7 days between doses. Subjects will be housed in the clinical facility at least 12 hours prior to dosing and after an overnight fasting of at least 10 hours dosing will be there. Subjects will continue to remain in the clinical facility for at least 24 hours after dosing in each period. Blood samples will be collected pre-dose and at multiple time points post-dose to assess pharmacokinetic parameters.
