See the DrugPatentWatch profile for vascepa
Vascepa is a prescription-only medication, which means it is not available over-the-counter (OTC). It is a prescription-strength omega-3 fatty acid medication used to treat high triglycerides and cardiovascular disease.
However, if you are looking for OTC omega-3 supplements, you can find them at various health food stores, pharmacies, and online retailers. Some popular OTC omega-3 supplements include:
1. Nordic Naturals Omega-3: This supplement is available at various health food stores and online retailers, including Amazon.
2. Nature's Bounty Omega-3: This supplement is available at various pharmacies and online retailers, including Walmart and Amazon.
3. CVS Pharmacy Omega-3: This supplement is available at CVS Pharmacy stores and online.
It's important to note that while OTC omega-3 supplements may be available, they may not have the same benefits as prescription-strength Vascepa. It's always best to consult with a healthcare professional before taking any supplements.
