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.

Did 8 weeks of Harvoni in 2015. Got normal AST & ALT and undetected VL by week 5, then relapsed 4 weeks post.

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.
