Does anyone know of any fish pills for kids, or just smaller capsuls?

I've been working on getting my wife to take fish pills because she's been having a lot of joint problems but she can't swallow the horse pills that I get. All of the main brands I see are about the same size. So I was curious if anyone makes a fish pill for kids (smaller size), or something of the sort.

Take a look at Coreomega. Orange flavored, kid friendly. You can go on their site and get a free sample, it will take some time to get though. Most health food stores sell it now, I know Vitamin Cottage here carries it. It is a 'liquid', kind of the texture of the carb energy supplements for bikers pre race. Actually pretty tasty.

the gell caps at any local big grocery store or walgreens should be good, triflex and joint MD are great for what you're looking for.

Like Ron said, liquid might be the best bet. A brand I would recommend would be Carson's.
