Brief Answer: No conflict reported... Detailed Answer: Hi, There is no "conflict" between the Lovaza and the other drugs you are currently taking. Please bare in mind that the main concern related to Lovaza (omega-3-fatty-acid) is increased bleeding. Therefore, blood thinners or other drugs that increases the chances to bleed would interact with Lovaza. You are not taking any of those drugs; so, no conflict. However, you should pay attention to any unusual symptom you might be experiencing and report it to your doctor straight away. Hope it answered your queries to your satisfaction! Dr.Albana
