That’s a good question I should put it in the post. Honestly I would go with a name brand at the pharmacy that you recognise.
Online is a bit more “wild west” even though it’s cheaper. Otherwise products on amazon with loads of good reviews is normally a good indicator (but theres always exceptions of course).
Otherwise I don’t have a specific brand to recommend, sorry!

Respectively means 1000mg EPA for depression, 450mg EPA for ADHD. DHA does not appear as important for those conditions.

For depression and ADHD, choose fish oil doses that contain at least 1000 mg and 450 mg of EPA, respectively.”

DHA is left out in the last sentence, the summary, so “respectively” doesn’t tell me how much of each one.
