Watch out for Antacids!
« on: August 18, 2015, 01:23:27 pm »
Turns out, both Harvoni and Viekira Pak have specific warnings against taking all sorts proton pump inhibitors while on treatment—drugs like Prilosec, that work by reducing the amount of acid made by glands in your stomach lining.

Other things clinical studies show to avoid while on hep C treatment: St. John’s Wort, Milk Thistle
