* Patients should be placed on an appropriate lipid-lowering diet before receiving Lovaza, and should continue this diet during treatment with Lovaza. In clinical studies, Lovaza was administered with meals.
The daily dose of Lovaza is 4 grams per day. The daily dose may be taken as a single 4-gram dose (4 capsules) or as two 2-gram doses (2 capsules given twice daily).
Patients should be advised to swallow Lovaza capsules whole. Do not break open, crush, dissolve or chew Lovaza.
