What are the effects, duration, and considerations for Mavyret?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have read your query and understand your concern.

1. Mavyret (Glecaprevir and Pibrentasvir) is one of the best treatment options available for hepatitis C at the moment. The duration of treatment is usually three months.

2. In advanced liver disease, we sometimes consider it for a relatively longer period like six months.

3. Considering your age, I hope you do not have advanced liver disease and your physician must have done your ultrasound abdomen and liver function tests as well to confirm your current liver status.

4. There are no major side effects and these medications are very well tolerated with a very good response rate.

5. No major lifestyle modifications, you can eat a normal diet, can do normal physical activity, but no alcohol (if any).

6. Avoid unnecessary medicine, and herbal treatments (every drug goes through the liver)

7. Family screen for hepatitis C, including your parents, siblings, or spouse.

I hope you find this information helpful.

Thank you.
