Vascepa is a prescription medication used to treat high levels of triglycerides in the blood. Patients who are prescribed Vascepa and have trouble affording the medication may be eligible for financial assistance through the Vascepa Patient Savings Program [2]. However, the income requirements for this program are not explicitly stated on the Vascepa website or the NeedyMeds website [2][3].
According to Drug Patent Watch, Vascepa is currently protected by patents that will expire in 2030 and 2032 [1]. This information is relevant for those interested in generic versions of the medication.
In conclusion, while the Vascepa Patient Savings Program offers financial assistance to eligible patients, the income requirements for this program are not provided on the Vascepa website or the NeedyMeds website. It is recommended that interested patients contact the Vascepa Patient Savings Program directly to inquire about income requirements.
