Vascepa (icosapent ethyl) is a prescription medication used to lower the risk of heart attacks and strokes in people with triglyceride levels of 150 mg/dL or higher [2]. It is typically taken orally, twice a day, with food [1].
However, individual circumstances and health conditions may warrant specific instructions from a healthcare provider. Therefore, it is always best to consult with a healthcare provider or pharmacist for personalized advice [3].
In summary, while there is no explicit restriction on taking Vascepa right before bed, it is recommended to maintain a consistent schedule and consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
