SOVALDI (sofosbuvir) is a medication prescribed to treat chronic hepatitis C (HCV) infection. SOVALDI is prescribed as part of a treatment regimen and may be prescribed in combination with ribavirin or PEG-interferon alfa. The hepatitis C virus is made up of a small amount of genetic material in a protein capsule. The virus uses different proteins to replicate itself, including NS5B RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. Sofosbuvir stops the action of this protein, preventing the replication of HCV.

Take one tablet of SOVALDI 400 mg by mouth once daily with or without food. The length of treatment and whether you take SOVALDI in combination with other drugs will depend on the genetic makeup of your hepatitis C infection. Do not take SOVALDI differently than how your doctor prescribed it. The recommended treatment duration and regimens include: Genotype 1 or 4: SOVALDI, ribavirin, and PEG-interferon alfa for 12 weeks, Genotype 2: SOVALDI and ribavirin for 12 weeks, Genotype 3: SOVALDI and ribavirin for 24 weeks Your doctor may prescribe you a regimen different than the ones listed above. Take SOVALDI exactly as prescribed.
If you have a history of both hepatitis B and hepatitis C infection, tell your doctor before starting SOVALDI. Some people with hepatitis B infection have had the virus reactivate after starting SOVALDI, leading to hepatitis, liver failure, and death. People who take both SOVALDI and the antiarrhythmic drug amiodarone may experience a slowed heart rate (bradycardia) that can be harmful. Tell your doctor all of your current medications before you start taking SOVALDI.
