Is there a generic version and how much does it cost?

Amarin’s U.S. patents on icosapent ethyl expired in late 2022, so generic versions are now sold. Generic 1 g capsules typically run $180–$240 for 120 capsules, or about $1.50–$2.00 each.

Does the price vary by strength or quantity?

Vascepa is also sold as 0.5 g capsules. A 240-capsule bottle of the 0.5 g strength usually costs $300–$360 cash, keeping the per-gram price similar to the 1 g product.

What do Medicare and commercial plans usually charge?

Medicare Part D plans place icosapent ethyl on tier 3 or 4, so copays commonly range from $40 to $90 per 30-day fill. Commercial plans vary, but many require prior authorization and list copays of $50–$120 monthly.
