VELASOF TABS 28's

About

Velasof Tablet contains the active ingredients Sofosbuvir and Velpatasvir and is used to treat chronic hepatitis C (HCV), a viral infection of the liver. Treatment with Velasof is often shorter than older regimens, though the exact duration may vary based on factors such as HCV genotype, prior treatment history, and the presence of liver cirrhosis. Successful therapy can significantly reduce liver inflammation and fibrosis, and achieving viral eradication lowers the risk of cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Velasof should not be taken by individuals with known allergies or hypersensitivity to the medication or any of its components. The safety and effectiveness of the Sofosbuvir-Velpatasvir combination have not been established in children under 18 years. In pediatric cases, alternative treatments or dosage adjustments are recommended.
