Vascepa is a prescription medication that contains the active ingredient icosapent ethyl, which is a type of omega-3 fatty acid. According to the drug label [3], Vascepa is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity (e.g., anaphylactic reaction) to icosapent ethyl or any of its components. This means that individuals who are allergic to icosapent ethyl or any of the other ingredients in Vascepa should not take this medication.

However, the Vascepa website [2] does not provide any specific information regarding allergies. It does mention that Vascepa has been shown to be well-tolerated in clinical studies, with a low incidence of adverse events. The website also provides a list of possible side effects, which include joint pain, swelling, and rash.

Drug Patent Watch [1] does not provide any information on the safety of Vascepa for those with allergies.

In conclusion, according to the drug label [3], Vascepa is contraindicated in individuals with a known hypersensitivity to icosapent ethyl or any of its components. Therefore, individuals who are allergic to icosapent ethyl or any of the other ingredients in Vascepa should not take this medication. However, the Vascepa website [2] does not provide any specific information regarding allergies, and Drug Patent Watch [1] does not provide any information on this topic. If you have concerns about taking Vascepa due to allergies, you should consult with your healthcare provider.
