Lovaza (active ingredient: omega-3-acid ethyl esters) is a prescription medication used to help lower very high triglyceride levels in adults. Triglycerides are a type of fat found in the blood. Your body needs some triglycerides for energy, but very high levels can increase the risk of health problems, including inflammation of the pancreas, also called pancreatitis.
Lovaza is used together with a triglyceride-lowering diet and other lifestyle changes recommended by your healthcare provider. It is not meant to replace healthy eating, physical activity, weight management, or treatment of other conditions that may contribute to high triglycerides.
Lovaza is indicated for adults with severe hypertriglyceridemia, meaning triglyceride levels are very high. The FDA-approved indication is for triglyceride levels of 500 mg/dL or higher as an add-on to diet.
Before starting Lovaza, your healthcare provider may check your blood lipid levels and look for possible causes of high triglycerides, such as diabetes, thyroid problems, diet, alcohol use, excess weight, or certain medications.
Lovaza contains concentrated prescription omega-3 fatty acids, mainly EPA and DHA. These omega-3 fatty acids help reduce triglyceride levels by lowering the amount of triglycerides produced by the liver and helping improve the removal of triglycerides from the bloodstream.
By lowering triglycerides, Lovaza can help improve your blood fat levels as part of a broader treatment plan.
Lovaza is a prescription medication, not the same as over-the-counter fish oil supplements. Prescription omega-3 products are regulated for strength, purity, and dosing. Always take Lovaza exactly as prescribed, and continue following the diet and lifestyle plan recommended by your healthcare provider.
Lovaza comes as an oral capsule that is taken by mouth, usually once or twice daily, as directed by your healthcare provider. It should be taken with meals to help your body absorb the medication properly and to reduce the chance of stomach-related side effects.
Swallow Lovaza capsules whole. Do not crush, chew, open, or dissolve the capsules, as this may affect how the medication works and may increase the risk of side effects.
The usual recommended dose of Lovaza is 4 grams per day.
This may be taken in one of two ways:
Your total daily dose should not exceed 4 grams per day unless your healthcare provider specifically tells you otherwise.
Do not substitute Lovaza with over-the-counter fish oil or other omega-3 supplements without speaking with your healthcare provider first. These products may contain different amounts or types of omega-3 fatty acids and may not work the same way as prescription Lovaza.
Take Lovaza exactly as prescribed, and continue following the diet and lifestyle plan recommended by your healthcare provider to help manage your triglyceride levels.
Lovaza (Omega 3 acid ethyl esters) is available in the following forms and strengths:
Before taking Lovaza, tell your healthcare provider about your medical history, allergies, and all medications or supplements you are taking. This helps your provider decide whether Lovaza is safe for you and whether you need any monitoring during treatment.
Lovaza may affect certain blood test results. In some people, it can increase LDL cholesterol, often called “bad” cholesterol. If you have liver problems, your healthcare provider may also monitor liver enzymes, such as ALT and AST, during treatment.
Your provider may order blood tests from time to time to check your triglycerides, cholesterol levels, and liver function. Report any unusual symptoms or abnormal test results to your healthcare provider.
Lovaza may be associated with more frequent episodes of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter in people who already have these heart rhythm conditions. This risk may be more likely during the first few months of treatment.
Before starting Lovaza, tell your healthcare provider if you have a history of irregular heartbeat, atrial fibrillation, or atrial flutter. Contact your provider if you notice symptoms such as a racing heartbeat, fluttering in your chest, shortness of breath, dizziness, or fainting.
Before taking Lovaza, tell your healthcare provider or pharmacist if you are allergic to omega-3-acid ethyl esters, fish, shellfish, or any other substances. Lovaza may contain inactive ingredients that can cause allergic reactions or other problems in some people.
Seek medical help right away if you develop signs of a serious allergic reaction, such as rash, hives, swelling of the face or throat, severe dizziness, or trouble breathing.
If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or think you may be pregnant, talk to your healthcare provider before taking Lovaza. Lovaza should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed and if the potential benefits outweigh the possible risks.
Your healthcare provider can help decide whether Lovaza is appropriate for you during pregnancy and discuss safer options if needed.
Lovaza is used to help lower very high triglyceride levels in adults, usually when triglycerides are 500 mg/dL or higher. It is used along with a low-fat and low-cholesterol diet and other lifestyle changes recommended by a healthcare provider.
Lovaza works by lowering the amount of triglycerides, a type of fat, in the blood. Reducing very high triglyceride levels may help lower the risk of certain health problems, including pancreatitis, which is inflammation of the pancreas.
Lovaza capsules contain omega-3-acid ethyl esters. Each capsule contains at least 900 mg of ethyl esters of omega-3 fatty acids, mainly EPA and DHA.
Lovaza is made from omega-3 fatty acids that come from fish oils, such as oils from fish like salmon and other marine sources.
Lovaza should be taken by mouth with food, exactly as directed by your healthcare provider. It is usually taken once or twice daily. Swallow the capsules whole. Do not crush, chew, open, or dissolve them, as this may affect how the medication works or increase the risk of side effects.
