Default EPA in Oz

Hi does anyone know if I can get any types if vitamins like eye q which contain the following:

EPA 186 mg
DHA 58mg
GLA 20mg


These are a fish oil capsule that I get from the Uk. My daughter has to take them. I can get them shipped from the UK - would this be a problem with customs? Therefore, I would rather get them in Australia if I can.

Anyone? BP you must know

The main vits manufacturer in OZ was shutdown due to dodgy manufacturing practises. They were called pan pharmaceuticals. I worked in the health food industry before and am averse to the stuff as a result.

If you can find a Blackmores equivalent you can buy them when you go shopping to Coles etc... or the chemist etc. There are other makes here aw well but I don't know them. I haven't seen any Biocare products. Apparently you can get some American ones (Nutri) but I haven't found a supplier yet.
