Sofosvel 500 mg Tablet

Sofosvel 500 mg Tablet is an oral antiviral medicine that contains sofosbuvir 400 mg and velpatasvir 100 mg in each tablet, for a total labeled strength of 500 mg per tablet. It belongs to the direct-acting antiviral class and is used to treat chronic hepatitis C infection in adults, helping clear the virus from the body when taken as prescribed. Sofosvel 500 mg Tablet is a prescription treatment and is usually used as part of a complete hepatitis C regimen chosen by a healthcare professional.

How it works: Sofosbuvir blocks the hepatitis C virus from copying its genetic material, which stops the virus from making more of itself. Velpatasvir blocks another viral protein needed for the virus to mature, so the tablet attacks hepatitis C in two different ways at once.

Sofosvel 500 mg Tablet is a full-strength tablet containing both active ingredients in one fixed-dose form, which is convenient for people who are ready for a standard hepatitis C treatment regimen. Because it is not a low-dose starter product, it should only be used when a doctor has confirmed it is the right fit based on genotype, liver status, and other medicines you take. The tablet form is swallowed whole and is designed for routine daily use rather than for quick symptom relief.

• Treatment of chronic hepatitis C infection
• Part of a direct-acting antiviral regimen

• Swallow Sofosvel 500 mg Tablet whole with water unless your prescriber gives different instructions.
• Take it at the same time each day to help you stay on schedule.

• Do not crush, split, or chew the tablet unless a clinician specifically instructs you to.

This product provides a total labeled dose of 500 mg per tablet, made up of sofosbuvir 400 mg plus velpatasvir 100 mg. The exact number of tablets per day and total treatment plan are decided by the doctor, and most patients take one tablet once daily, with the daily maximum set by the prescriber based on the full regimen and your medical history.
