Therapeutic Category

Dietary supplement — nutritional support for hormonal balance, skin health and general wellbeing. Evening primrose oil products are classified as food supplements, not as drugs.

Active Ingredients/Composition

Each capsule typically contains:

• Evening Primrose Oil — 500 mg or 1000 mg (derived from the seeds of the Oenothera biennis plant).

Evening primrose oil is rich in omega-6 fatty acids, especially linoleic acid and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) — essential fats thought to support hormone-related and skin functions.

Variant

Soft or hard capsule containing evening primrose oil — typically 30 capsules per pack.

Consume Type

Oral supplement — swallow capsules with food or liquid.

Directions/Usage

• Adults and children over 12 years: Take one capsule with food or a liquid daily, or as directed by a healthcare provider.

• Do not exceed the recommended intake on the label unless advised by a clinician.

Evening primrose oil supplements are typically taken with meals to improve absorption and reduce gastric discomfort (standard for fatty oil supplements).

Common Side Effects

Supplements containing evening primrose oil are generally well tolerated, but mild effects may include:

• Headache

• Stomach upset / nausea

• Dizziness

• Skin rash or itching (rare)

According to broader safety information on evening primrose oil, side effects can include gastrointestinal symptoms and headache in some users.

Package Type

Typically a bottle or blister pack of 30 capsules (check your packaging for exact presentation).

Storage Advice

• Store below 30 °C in a cool, dry place.

• Protect from direct sunlight and moisture.

• Keep the container tightly closed when not in use.

• Keep out of reach of children.

Safety Advice

Dietary supplements should not replace a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.
 If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, have a medical condition, or are planning surgery, consult a healthcare provider before use, as evening primrose oil may affect coagulation and interact with medications.
 People on blood thinners or antiplatelet therapy should use caution, as evening primrose might alter blood clotting.
 Discontinue use and seek medical advice if you develop severe symptoms or allergic reactions.

Product Substitutes

Other evening primrose oil supplements with similar compositions and uses include:

• Standard evening primrose oil capsules (e.g., 500–1000 mg) from other reputable manufacturers.

• If specifically targeting hormonal or skin support, other omega-6 or GLA-containing supplements such as borage oil or black currant seed oil may be considered (under clinician advice).
