I was told that I could have omega 3 in my multi ...no issues. I would follow your own doctors advice.

Hey @A myPBCteam Member! This is a great question to ask your doctor! I couldn't find any information online on the connection between Omega 3 and PBC. However I did see this - " Omega-3 supplementation is associated with improved outcomes in patients with chronic liver disease. However, it is unclear whether Omega-3 supplementation can prevent the development of liver disease, particularly in individuals at an increased (genetic) risk."
