After years of taking generic otc omega for uncontrolbl triglycerides dr prescribd lovaza. pls suggest less expensive quality name brand otc?

Elevated TG : I am not aware of anything better than Lovaza . If you go to OTC you would have to take a handful of pills severSl times a day & it would still not control your TG . Watch your fat and carb intake , reduce your weight and you will decrease your dose most likely .
