LAC Trimax Omega review: enteric coated, at a price

LAC Trimax Omega Fish Oil EC is the enteric-coated option in a real supply size: 120 softgels for around ₱3,700 as of August 19, 2026.

What does enteric coating solve?

The reason people stop. An enteric coating keeps the softgel intact past the stomach so it dissolves further along, which addresses the fishy burps and repeat directly rather than masking them.

Where this differs from the other coated product here is quantity. Nature’s Bounty gives you 30 coated softgels as a trial. This gives you 120, which is four months of a daily habit.

What does it not tell you?

The split. LAC does not publish EPA and DHA per softgel on this listing, and at this price that omission is harder to forgive than it is on a ₱225 box. The dose instruction is clear enough, one softgel daily with food, but the composition is not.

If the exact figures matter, ask LAC Philippines before ordering. It is the brand own store, so that question has somewhere to go.

Is it sulit?

At around ₱3,700 as of August 19, 2026, it is the most expensive fish oil in this roundup by a wide margin, several times what a pharmacy brand costs for a comparable count. What you are buying is the coating at scale plus brand-direct backing.

For someone who has repeatedly abandoned fish oil over aftertaste, that may be exactly the right purchase. For someone who has never had the problem, it is a lot of money for a feature they will not notice.

Who should buy it

Buy this if aftertaste has defeated you before and you want a four-month coated supply from the brand’s own store. Skip it if burps have never bothered you, or if you want published EPA and DHA before you spend this much.

Alternatives to consider

To test whether a coating fixes your problem before spending this much, the Nature’s Bounty coated 30-count is the cheap trial. For published omega-3 figures at a far lower cost per dose, the Webber Naturals 300-count is our Best Overall.
