are the capsules enteric coated?

Because the product is not enteric coated, and because of the relatively low potency of its omega-3 oil, it is not surprising that you will get a fishy after taste or fish burps from the product.

No- they state that enteric coating prevents it from disolving while in the stomach, which is the key area the fish oil needs to be absorbed from. Second, I have not noticed the fish burp that others have, or that I have with other fish oil pills. They advertise this to be the case, and I will attest to that. Fish burp has been very nasty with some of the other pills I have taken.

No they are not coated, they are a bit powdery but they are not large. I do not have a problem getting them down.

Yes, the capsules are made of gelatin. Gelatin is derived from animals. Vegetarian capsules are made of cellulose.

They are not. They recently changed the color. I thought the same thing, and then purchased this product at Target. The capsules were purple/red. Sometimes they just change. You might want to contact the company for clarification.

Yes. According to the information on the container they are small a "Softgel Capsule (gelatin, glycerin, water)." I hope that this helps.

In addition to other replies, also note that this capsule is not enteric coated, thus most of the organisms will be killed in your GI tract (gut).

No they are not. They seem sort of in between a hard capsule and a real gel capsule if that helps any. They are smaller than the daily tablets I was taking though.

I have to agree with the other answers these are not small pills but they do have a smooth coating that makes them a little easier to swallow. I have a son who cannot swallow pills and he would not be able to swallow these even with the smooth coating.

To be honest i can't remember but I want to believe so, because it was a nice size, now that i've think about it i want to say yes it is coated for easy swallowing

they are as big as they can get but coated capsules. I'm not sure if that helps any.

Not sure. The pill appears glassy however it just so happens that my daughter is here at my house at this very moment. She is a nurse and she examined the pill (tablet) and read the entire label on the bottle and there is nothing to say that the pill is coated so her feeling is that the pill is NOT COATED.

Yes, these are probiotics in capsule form. I've taken them for several years.

I think they are capsules as they are more cylindrical in shape. They are fairly large pills. Hope this helps.

These are veg caps with a gelatin covering with a dark colored powdery substance inside. I found them easy to swallow. (NOTE: This is an update to my previous answer where I was looking at the wrong bottle)

No, they're capsules, not soft gels. They are small and also easy to swallow.

I can't remember which ones these are of the two I've ordered in the past, but neither is the capsule... both are tablets, but one is round and one is more elongated like a capsule, only it's a tablet material. I think both were coated, one was bright reddish, the other more of a brownish red.

The tablets are not coated... about one inch long (slightly rounded on the ends), 3/8 inch wide, and 1/4 inch thick.
