7.For the Lovaza Arm, females may be of non-childbearing potential (as outlined above for Warfarin and Lovaza) or be of childbearing potential and must either be sexually inactive (abstinent) for 14 days prior to screening and remain so through 30 days following the final dosing of the study drug or until completion of the subject's first menstrual cycle following the final dosing of the study drug, whichever period of time is longer or have been using one of the acceptable methods of birth control.
