Key Benefits

Trascepa 1000 Softgel Capsule contains Icosapent Ethyl, which belongs to a class of medications called antilipemic or lipid-regulating agents. It is used together with lifestyle changes (diet, weight loss, exercise) to lower the high cholesterol or increased cholesterol levels and triglycerides in the blood. It works by decreasing the amount of triglycerides and other fats made in the liver. Lowering cholesterol levels helps prevent the risk of a heart attack, a stroke, or other heart problems that require hospitalization in certain adults with high triglyceride levels and heart disease or diabetes with two or more other heart disease risk factors.
