Velpatasvir

Velpatasvir is an antiviral medication used to treat hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. It works by blocking a protein that the virus needs to replicate and multiply in the body. By stopping the virus from spreading, velpatasvir helps to clear the infection, reducing liver damage and health risks associated with hepatitis C. It is often used in combination with other antiviral drugs for better effectiveness. Velpatasvir is generally taken orally as a tablet, and treatment duration varies depending on the specific HCV genotype and patient factors.
