The objectives of this study are to compare the relative bioavailabilities of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in plasma from a single dose of Epanova or Lovaza during periods of high- and low -fat consumption.

AUC(0-t): Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From 0 to 24 Hours (the Final Time With a Concentration ≥ LOQ)
Analyses of the outcome measures presented are for baseline-adjusted data for total (esterified and unesterfied) EPA and DHA since the presence of endogenous levels of these fatty acids would likely contribute to intra-subject variability and affect the analyses and interpretation.
Time frame: Blood samples were obtained pre-dose at -1.0, -0.5, and 0 hours and after dose administration at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12 and 24 hours.
AUC(Inf): Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From 0 to Infinity
Analyses of the outcome measures presented are for baseline-adjusted data for total (esterified and unesterfied) EPA and DHA since the presence of endogenous levels of these fatty acids would likely contribute to intra-subject variability and affect the analyses and interpretation.
Time frame: Blood samples were obtained pre-dose at -1.0, -0.5, and 0 hours and after dose administration at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12 and 24 hours.
C(Max): Maximum Plasma Concentration
