Mechanism of Action
HEPCINAT is a direct-acting antiviral agent, specifically targeting the hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication process. By inhibiting the enzyme NS5B RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, Sofosbuvir disrupts viral multiplication, which suppresses HCV growth in the body and enhances the likelihood of achieving a sustained virologic response.
Administration and Dosage
Take one 400 mg HEPCINAT tablet orally each day, ideally at the same time. Always follow your healthcare provider's directions precisely. The tablets are packaged in sealed, child-resistant HDPE bottles for safety, and should only be used by those with a valid prescription.
Storage Guidelines
HEPCINAT tablets must be stored below 30C, away from direct light and moisture. Proper storage not only preserves the effectiveness of the medication throughout its shelf life, which ranges from 24 to 36 months, but also maintains safety by preventing accidental exposure.
