Do i need a prescription for vascepa?



Vascepa is a prescription drug that is used to treat high levels of triglycerides in the blood. Therefore, it is necessary to have a prescription from a licensed healthcare provider to obtain this medication [2]. It is not available over-the-counter or without a prescription. Vascepa is a patented drug, which means that it is protected by a patent that prevents other companies from producing and selling the same drug [1]. The drug is available in the form of capsules and is manufactured by Amarin Pharma Inc. [2]. Vascepa contains a high concentration of omega-3 fatty acids, which have been shown to reduce triglyceride levels in the blood [3]. It is important to follow the dosage and administration instructions provided by the healthcare provider to ensure that the medication is used safely and effectively.
