My triglysride is 205 dr giveme lovaza but it is expensive is there any other medicine?

Not that high: 202 in my opinion is not that high. Try a low fat diet. It still remains to be seen whether aggressive triglyceride reduction can improve cardiovascular outcomes. I wouldn't go broke try ing to lower it from 202 to 150.
