Amarin Provides Pricing & Reimbursement Updates for VAZKEPA (icosapent ethyl) in The Netherlands and Italy - Seite 2

“In Italy, cardiovascular diseases are responsible for 35.8% of all deaths, exceeding 230,000 cases annually and represent the leading cause of death and hospitalization²,” added Holt. “While we are disappointed with today’s decision, we continue to stand behind the proven therapeutic benefit of our product and we will continue our efforts to ensure patients across Italy have access to VAZKEPA to reduce their cardiovascular risk.”

Amarin continues to advance its pricing and reimbursement discussions in a number of other European markets to drive patient access across the region and will share updates as these become available.
