Acasti is a biopharmaceutical innovator focused on the research, development and commercialization of prescription drugs using omega-3 fatty acids derived from krill oil. Omega-3 fatty acids have extensive clinical evidence of safety and efficacy in lowering triglycerides in patients with hypertriglyceridemia. Market research commissioned by Acasti* suggests there is an important market need for an effective, safe and well-absorbing omega-3 therapeutic with a positive impact on the major lipids associated with cardiovascular disease risk. Since August 2008, Acasti is focused on addressing this important unmet market need. Source
