A Randomised Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial of Fish Oil (Omega-3) in Sjögren’s Syndrome Patients in Erbil-Iraq
Omega-3 fatty acids effectively improved dry mouth and dry eye symptoms. Furthermore, this led to significant normalisation of salivary flow rate. While Schirmer's test results improved in both groups, the differences between the omega-3 and placebo groups were insignificant.
