LovaZa Information

LovaZa (EPA and DHA) is a lipid-regulating prescription medication used as an adjunct to dietary modifications and lifestyle changes to lower very high triglycerides in adults significantly. Lovaza is typically used when dietary and lifestyle changes alone aren't enough to bring down the levels of triglyceride. High triglyceride levels have been implicated in increasing the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack and stroke, along with inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis).

LovaZa is essentially a purified formulation of omega-3 acid ethyl esters, derived from fish oil, and it predominantly contains two key omega-3 fatty acids: Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA). The exact mechanism by which this medication works is not fully understood. However, it appears to inhibit a specific enzyme in the liver that's crucial for synthesizing triglycerides. It also increases the activity of a key enzyme (lipoprotein lipase) that helps break down triglycerides in the bloodstream, allowing them to be cleared more effectively. There's also evidence suggesting that it increases the breakdown of fatty acids in the liver through a process called beta-oxidation.

Omega-3 acid ethyl esters have been proven effective in reducing triglyceride levels and other forms of fats. However, it may also increase the levels of bad cholesterol in some individuals, which is why continued monitoring is necessary while taking this medication. While it is effective in treating high triglyceride levels, its efficacy in reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases or pancreatitis has not been determined.
