Vascepa is a prescription drug used to treat high triglyceride levels in the blood. It contains the active ingredient icosapent ethyl, which is a type of omega-3 fatty acid. As of August 2021, there are no FDA-approved generic versions of Vascepa available in the United States [1][2]. However, Hikma Pharmaceuticals has received approval for a generic version of Vascepa, but it is currently being held up in a patent dispute with Amarin, the manufacturer of Vascepa [3]. Therefore, it is not currently available on the market. It is important to note that generic versions of prescription drugs may not be available immediately after the expiration of the patent, as there may be legal challenges and regulatory hurdles to overcome before they can be sold to the public. Patients who are looking for a lower-cost alternative to Vascepa should speak with their healthcare provider about other options that may be available to them.
