What Causes Pain In Ribs With Intake Of Mega Red Tablets?

I started taking Mega Red tablets to help lower my cholesterol and started having pain in both my right and left side under my ribs? When I stop taking it it goes away why am I having this pain? Could it be a connection from the other drugs I take for High blood pressure?

Hello,

Mega red is a supplement which contains omega-3 fatty acids. It does not cause pain in the side of the ribs as a side effect. I suggest to do a chest X-ray for further evaluation.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
