Not sure as I use a liquid i did not buy capsules to give him as I was concerned about the effects of too much fish oil so I went with this one which is a good fish oil. I use the human one for myself in the liquid which does not have a fishy taste at all. www.omega-direct.com/product194.html

Maybe I am unaware, but I'm not sure that fish oil does much if anything regarding shedding? Andrew takes a liquid fish oil, so I can't really compare to the capsule, but the biggest difference I've seen in him is that is fur is super soft and velvety. I'm fortunate Andrew isn't a shedder so I can't really even offer help on anything that might help. Sorry

Fish oil is supposed to help make the coat silky and reduce shedding. Also helps make the nails less brittle. I understand it is important to give a safe dose as too much fish oil can also cause softening of the bones.
