Comment:
It lowered my Triglycerides but caused a drug interaction with my Statin that I was taking at the same time. It caused all of my muscles to get very weak & I could hardly even walk or get up or lift my arms! I hurt all over. It was really a horrible thing to have happen to me. It has taken 1 year for me to feel better.

Comment:
great for the triglycerides but had to get off of it because of severe leg and arm pain. The side effect wasn't worth the benefit of the drug.
