Interesting Post.
IF REDUCE IT proves out I would suspect pure EPA and Vascepa will become a staple of everyone's diet as part of preventative medicine.
I'm not sure without the real need I'd be taking any RX in large doses until everything is proven but with the low known side effects I guess pure EPA could be an exception.

It'll be interesting to see what you get out of it though a 1 person sample, in the end, has little value but interesting nonetheless.

I am barely in the High trig category last year and have a physical next week so will get an update, have increased my exercise moderately from a year ago and sightly improved diet BUT if in the High area I will talk to the doctor about Vascepa though I would wait until Anchor approval and Tier 2 coverage on that before starting to take it.
Good luck!

Question Jesse. Is it true, that it is recommended, once you start taking aspirin as a daily regimen, that you should not stop taking it? Maybe based on plaque build up after taking it long term. I forgot why! But it is recommended never start taking a daily dose of aspirin, unless your doctor (I know your a doctor) advises you.

But I like your reasoning for taking Vascepa. Thats why I plan on requesting it. I have my physical due in a week or two.

two hours on Vascepa
Just popped by 1st dose

also have very dry eyes so if they improve as JL experienced I will be very happy


My TGs are high @ 480 so I know by lipids will improve , but mostly looking forward to an overall reduction in inflammation

IMO its the single most important dietary supplement you can take. I've been taking daily fish oil for years but never in enough qty to make a difference.

BTW used the Amarin supplied coupon for zero co-pay on 1st perscription - $25 max after that
