Omega-3-Acid Ethyl Esters capsules, USP are indicated as an adjunct to diet to reduce triglyceride (TG) levels in adult patients with severe (500 mg/dL) hypertriglyceridemia (HTG).
FDA Label
Omega-3-acid ethyl esters reduce triglyceride production, increase fatty acid metabolism, inhibit the release of fatty acids, increase triglyceride clearance, and decrease production of very low density lipoprotein cholesterol(VLDL-C).
Absorption
Omega-3-acid ethyl esters are rapidly hydrolysed to free fatty acids in the intestinal lumen which then become incorporated into phospholipids, cholesterol, and triglycerides so determination of bioavailability by serum concentration is not possible.
Route of Elimination
Includes oxidative catabolism to carbon dioxide and water
Volume of Distribution
82 56L
Clearance
757 mL/h 283mL/h.
Omega-3-acid ethyl esters are hydrolysed to free fatty acids in the intestinal lumen by pancreatic lipase. Once in enterocytes, the free fatty acids are packaged in chylomicrons which are released from cells into the circulation. Fatty acids then enter the liver where they can be incorporated into liver stores, incorporated into lipoprotein phospholipids, or oxidised for energy.

Omega-3-acid ethyl esters reduce triglyceride production by the liver but this mechanism is not well understood. Omega-3-acid ethyl esters inhibit acyl-CoA:1,2-diacylglycerol acyltransferase, reducing triglyceride synthesis and increasing paroxysmal beta-oxidation, which increases fatty aside metabolism. Omega-3-acid ethyl esters also inhibit the release of fatty acids by competing for enzymes involved in the synthesis of triglycerides, increase triglyceride clearance by increasing the activity of lipoprotein lipase, and decrease production of VLDL-C.
