Title: I will start Vosevi retreatment soon
Post by: mcmaklin on August 18, 2018, 12:49:11 pm

Hello it seems I will start Vosevi in the middle of September. Please - any recommendations, what time or a day to take it, and do you have someone here who has been treated or failed the Vosevi? I have genotype 1b please look at the bottom. I had already one DAA treatment and I have L31M RAVs.
What about side effects etc. I can add that I was taking Viekira Exviera with no side effects at all.

I'm finishing 12 wks on Vosevi Sept 26. I have milk, tolerable SFX. I seem to get tired about 3 PM a lot, then I need a nap. It tended to dry out my GI tract and slow up my elimination. Drink lots of water. If you get SFX, try more water. Take your pill "about" the same time every day. I like mine with my mid day meal, since I eat only OMAD (one meal a day). It can be give or take an hour or so.  I felt a little achy last night, not bad. It's not bad at all and see my results below. I have 5 weeks to go on it.

The prescribing instructions says take it with food, once a day. I suggest taking it with the meal you are most likely to remember to take the pill with. I prefer morning for once daily pills since I eat breakfast at home daily.

If you put "vosevi" into the forum search field, you can find other posts about peoples' experiences.
