WHAT EXVIERA™ IS USED FOR
Exviera™ is an antiviral
medicine used to treat
adults with chronic
(long-term) Hepatitis C (an
infectious disease that affects
the liver, caused
by the Hepatitis C virus).
It is very important that you
also read the package leaflets
for the other antiviral
medicines that you take with
Exviera™. If you have any
questions about your
medicines, please ask your
doctor or pharmacist.
HOW EXVIERA™ WORKS
It contains the active substance
dasabuvir. Exviera™ works by
stopping the Hepatitis C virus
from multiplying and infecting
new cells, thus clearing the
virus from your blood over a
period of time.
Exviera™ tablets do not work
on their own. They are always
taken with another antiviral
medicine containing
ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritona
vir. Some patients may also
take an antiviral medicine
called ribavirin. Your doctor
will talk with you about
which of these medicines to
take with Exviera™.
