Omacor Information:
Omacor (generic name: Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids) is a drug which is prescribed for the treatment of high triglyceride levels in the blood. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids are found in oil from certain types of fish, vegetables, and other plant sources. These fatty acids are not made by the body and must be consumed in the diet. Omacor works by lowering the body's production of triglycerides. High levels of triglycerides can lead to coronary artery disease, heart disease, and stroke. Triglycerides are a type of fat that is found in your blood, and they are essential for giving your body energy. They are very important for good health, but equally high levels of triglycerides can also cause you to become unwell. You can check your triglyceride levels by taking a blood test at your doctor surgery.
