Are there interactions between vascepa and ace inhibitor medications?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for vascepa

Based on the information available, there is no inherent interaction between Vascepa (icosapent ethyl) and ACE inhibitor medications.

Vascepa is a prescription medication used to lower triglyceride levels in adult patients. It is a formulation of the omega-3 fatty acid, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) [1]. ACE inhibitors, such as lisinopril and ramipril, are a class of medications commonly used to treat hypertension and heart failure [2].

According to DrugPatentWatch.com, there are currently no known or reported interactions between Vascepa and ACE inhibitors [3]. However, as with any medication, it is important to inform your healthcare provider of all medications, supplements, and over-the-counter products you are taking to avoid potential interactions [4].

In summary, while there is no known interaction between Vascepa and ACE inhibitors, it is always important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new medication.
