Abstract
Omega-3 fatty acids have shown modest benefit in certain subgroups at higher cardiovascular risk. Ongoing trials are investigating cardiovascular event rate reduction with newer, more efficacious formulations with a focus on these higher risk patients. This article focuses on the previously demonstrated benefits of omega-3 fatty acid therapies, currently available formulations, and their current and future role in reducing cardiovascular risk.
