That AF logic, always a hoot. This comment alone has no bearing on Vascepa
"is a lot of clinical evidence presented to date suggesting the answer is no, omega 3s don't reduce heart attacks, strokes, CV-related deaths, etc"

but the reality is there is zero clinical evidence on pure EPA that has that conclusion. The clinical evidence on pure EPA that has been done shows it DOES reduce heart events. So his theory is basically the same as saying ibuprofen does not prevent something so aspirin should not be used for that something.

It's incredibly flawed logic but it does point to the large uninformed population of doctors and primary care physicians that think Vascepa and any fish oil study have a correlation.

Considering statins do 20 billion dollars in sales yet PEOPLE ON STATINS DO NOT LIVE ANY LONGER THAN PROPLE NOT ON STATINS. So let's not act like the FDA has a giant standard of proof to approve cholesterol lowering drugs. Vascepa is safe, no side effects to speak of, how would the FDA look if Vascepa prevents heart attacks and extends lives and several people die the next few years because they did not approve a drug with zero side effects and meets all endpoints and was designed with FDA approval.

AF has an agenda, simple as that, he has zero facts to support his case and tries to lump Vascepa in with studies that never use Vascepa to try to make a poor point. Sorry, does not fly.
