As of November 2020, there is no generic version of Vascepa available in the United States [2][3]. According to Drug Patent Watch, the patent for Vascepa will expire in July 2025, which means that a generic version of the drug will not be available until then [1]. However, in September 2020, the FDA approved a generic version of Vascepa, but it is not yet available for purchase [3]. It is important to note that even when a generic version of a drug is available, it may not be an exact replica of the brand-name drug and may have slight differences in efficacy and side effects. It is always recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before making any changes to medication.
