rfj - Sorry to be slow responding, I've been out and about.
I appreciate you taking the time to check on the facts. That's helpful. In this case, I think the problem may have been that uptodate.com didn't refer to Vascepa, but the technical name icosapent ethyl, and that was not in the title, which may have hindered a search.
I'm not a doctor and don't have access to the uptodate site. I referred to a quote from cardiologymd, who shared it with us. (Thanks to him for that.) An updated quote is in his post #178956, and does reflect the recommendation to wait for new trial due to mineral oil doubt. I disagree wholeheartedly, as do others. No new trial results expected very soon, and not clear they will be any better, and there's no valid reason to doubt RI results.
