VASCEPA Savings Program

Savings card from Amarin Pharma

No insurance $99 a month

Insurance · as little as $0 for a 90-day supply

The card takes up to $2,400 a year off your co-pay.

See the offer on vascepa.com

In the maker’s words

“Pay as low as $0 for 90 days for eligible, commercially insured patients…”

“Cash-paying patients not using insurance who acknowledge and agree they cannot submit any portion of such payment for reimbursement to any insurance or other third party are alternatively eligible for a 30-day supply for $99.”

From the maker’s offer on vascepa.com, checked November 2, 2026. Co-pay cards can’t be used with Medicare (including Medicare Advantage), Medicaid, TRICARE or VA.

Maker’s card or discount card?

A discount card like GoodRx lowers the pharmacy’s cash price, but for a brand-name drug that price often stays high. Compare it with the maker’s price above. You can usually use one or the other on a fill, not both.

Authorized genericNot sold

There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Vascepa itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. A regular generic is sold, with the same active ingredient: ask the pharmacy for its price.

What to say at the pharmacy

“Before you fill my Vascepa, can you tell me what I’d pay for the brand and for a generic?”

Paying cash? Ask for each one’s cash price. With insurance, ask what your plan charges for each.

What it’s used for

What the FDA label says

VASCEPA is an ethyl ester of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) indicated:

as an adjunct to maximally tolerated statin therapy to reduce the risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary revascularization, and unstable angina requiring hospitalization in adult patients with elevated triglyceride (TG) levels(≥ 150 mg/dL) and
- established cardiovascular disease or
- diabetes mellitus and 2 or more additional risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
as an adjunct to diet to reduce TG levels in adult patients with severe (≥ 500 mg/dL) hypertriglyceridemia.

Limitations of Use:

The effect of VASCEPA on the risk for pancreatitis in patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia has not been determined.

Source: the FDA label for Vascepa (Amarin Pharma Inc.), March 23, 2026. Full label on DailyMed

Good to know

A regular generic may look different from Vascepa. The FDA requires it to work the same way.
“Commercial insurance” means a plan from a job, from the marketplace, or one you buy yourself. A retiree plan that’s part of Medicare counts as Medicare. Co-pay cards can’t be used with Medicare (including Medicare Advantage), Medicaid, TRICARE or VA.
Most cards need a sign-up on the maker’s site, and many work only if your plan covers the drug. Then give the card’s details to your pharmacy.
Don’t stop or change a medicine without talking to your pharmacist or prescriber.

Prices checked November 2, 2026. Prices change: confirm with the pharmacy before you fill. drugalt.com/drug/vascepa/
