For Hypertriglyceridemia "I was recently prescribed Vascepa for high triglycerides. I have been highly impressed with its ability to stop inflammation and pain from my multiple sclerosis. I am eagerly waiting to see how well Vascepa lowers my triglycerides at the next doctor visit. This medicine is great and minus the issues associated with DHA. Meaning no a-fib or palpitations and tachycardia. As pure as pure is and well worth the money! Vascepa is a wonder drug. Thank you, Amarin Pharmaceuticals."

For Hypertriglyceridemia "I was put on this back in May. It's Sept. 2021 now, and I've been to the hospital twice in two weeks with Afib, heart palpitations, and shortness of breath. This is the only new thing I've been taking. I don't know if it's the culprit. It did its job as far as lowering my triglycerides. I took four pills a day, and it went from 1145 to 615 from May to Sept."
