LOVAZA\u2122\xae\xa9 (ask your doctor if LOVAZA\u2122\xae\xa9 is right for you) is an excellent medication. It is extraordinarily safe. It is moderately effective at its legal indication of lowering levels of certain fats in the bloodstream. It has moderately good evidence for having other beneficial effects as well, including treating certain psychiatric, rheumatological and dermatological disorders.
Lovaza is fish oil.
\u201cCome on,\u201d you say, \u201csurely there\u2019s some difference between Lovaza and the fish oil I buy at my local health food store for a couple of tenners per Giant Jar?\u201d
And you\u2019re right. The difference is, Lovaza costs $300 a month.
