Frequently asked questions

What is Maviret used for?+
Maviret is indicated for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus infection in adult patients, covering all major genotypes (1‑6). It is part of a short‑duration, pangenotypic regimen designed to achieve a sustained virologic response, effectively clearing the virus from the body.
How does glecaprevir/pibrentasvir work?+
Glecaprevir blocks the HCV NS3/4A protease, preventing cleavage of the viral polyprotein, while pibrentasvir inhibits the NS5A replication complex, disrupting viral RNA replication and assembly. The combined action halts viral replication, allowing the immune system to clear infected cells.
What is the usual dose of Maviret?+
The prescribed dose of Maviret is determined by the treating physician based on the patient’s clinical profile, genotype, and treatment guidelines. The standard regimen consists of one tablet containing 300 mg glecaprevir and 120 mg pibrentasvir taken orally once daily for the duration recommended by the prescriber.
Is Maviret safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for Maviret in pregnant or nursing women are limited, and the product is classified as pregnancy category unknown.

How does Maviret compare with other HCV treatments?+
Compared with other direct‑acting antiviral regimens, Maviret offers a pangenotypic option that combines a protease inhibitor and an NS5A inhibitor in a single tablet, allowing a short, once‑daily course without the need for ribavirin. Efficacy and safety are comparable to other approved regimens, but selection depends on genotype, comorbidities, and drug‑interaction profiles.
How should Maviret be stored?+

Serious adverse events reported with Maviret include elevated liver enzymes, hepatic decompensation, severe rash or allergic reactions, and hematologic abnormalities such as anemia or thrombocytopenia. Patients should be monitored regularly for signs of liver dysfunction or hypersensitivity, and treatment should be discontinued if severe reactions occur.
Who should not use Maviret?+
Maviret is contraindicated in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child‑Pugh class C) and should be avoided in individuals receiving strong CYP3A inducers such as rifampin, carbamazepine, or St. John’s wort.
