Omega-3 (Fish Oil) and Ketamine Therapy | Tovani Health

Fish Oil (Omega-3 Fatty Acids) (also: Lovaza, Vascepa)Polyunsaturated fatty acid supplement

Verdict at Tovani Health

Fully compatible with KAP.

Omega-3 fatty acids and ketamine have no clinically significant interaction. OTC fish oil and prescription preparations (Lovaza, Vascepa) are both fine to continue.

If you take Fish Oil regularly and are considering at-home ketamine therapy, the combination is generally safe at therapeutic doses. This page covers the brief pharmacologic context and what we do at intake.

How Fish Oil interacts with ketamine

EPA and DHA are anti-inflammatory polyunsaturated fatty acids with cardiovascular and possibly mood benefits. No CYP interactions of clinical significance.

What we do at intake

Continue as normal. Note that very high doses can mildly prolong bleeding time, which matters more for surgery than for KAP.

Bottom line

Omega-3 fatty acids and ketamine have no clinically significant interaction. OTC fish oil and prescription preparations (Lovaza, Vascepa) are both fine to continue.
