Usage

Vascepa (Icosapent Ethyl) is a prescription medication used as an add-on to maximally tolerated statin therapy to reduce cardiovascular risk among patients with elevated triglyceride levels. This medication is used along with statins to reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and certain types of heart issues that require hospitalization in adults with diabetes, heart disease and two or more additional risk factors for heart disease. Vascepa helps protect you from a life-threatening event like a heart attack or stroke. This medication is combined with a low-fat and low-cholesterol diet to reduce triglycerides in adults with severely high triglycerides. Icosapent ethyl belongs to the class of medications called antilipemic or lipid-regulating agents. It works in the liver and bloodstream to reduce very low-density triglycerides.

Side Effects and Precautions

The common side effects of Vascepa may include chest pressure, racing or pounding heartbeats, fluttering in your chest, feeling short of breath, constipation, gout, muscle or joint pain, and swelling of the hands, legs, or feet.

Call your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects such as:
• Fast or irregular heartbeats, dizziness, shortness of breath, chest discomfort, fainting, or if you feel light-headed;
