Can vascepa be taken with other medications?



Vascepa (icosapent ethyl) is a prescription medication used to lower triglyceride levels in the blood. According to Drugs.com [2], there are 135 drugs known to interact with Vascepa, including common medications such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and lisinopril. It is essential to inform your healthcare provider of all the medications, vitamins, and supplements you are taking before starting Vascepa to avoid potential interactions. Your doctor may adjust the dosages of other medications you are taking to minimize the risk of interactions. Additionally, MedBroadcast [3] suggests that if you have a history of bleeding disorders, you should be cautious when taking Vascepa with other medications that can increase the risk of bleeding. As always, it is essential to follow your doctor's instructions carefully and report any side effects or concerns promptly.
