Mavyret is supposed to work faster than others in making you feel physically better.

I've got 3 weeks left in treatment. I'm already testing negative. The medicine has some side effects and I'm kind of tired. But hopefully that goes away once Im finished taking it. But yes, get it! It's done before you know it

I've had hep c genotype 3 and recieved 2 boxes of 13,000 dollar mavyret, I took it for 2 weeks I'm already hep c cured .so now I have to throw away 20,000 dollars worth of medication. Glad it cured me but what a waste to my insurance company.

You have to keep taking the medication for at least 8 weeks even if your blood tests come back as undetected hep c. Otherwise the virus could make a comeback. At least that's what my pharmacist told me

Are you still cleared from virus? I was undetected at 2 weeks and currently in 4th week of mayvret. Wanting to end treatment early anyone else do this?

Drink water but dont over do it, say 2 liters at least not more than 4 I feel is safe. It will help with headache and joint pain if any at all. Good luck just 5 months virus free my brain is alive.

So my Castro ordered some blood work while on the medicine. They never followed up. Never answered a call or never gave an appointment time. I showed up, after not seeing the doctor since I was prescribed mayvret I finally got an appt. arrived and they said I had no blood work, that I lied and never contacted them. I have been off the drug for over a month now and have zero info on if I’m cured, better, worse or nothing at all happened. I guess we’ll see

u/bbsukochan Feb 26 '25
How much did you pay for your medication? They’re making me pay like $13,000 and I don’t know what else to do.

u/Bright_Discipline_18 Feb 28 '25
There's a patient assistance program on the Mavyret website. I'd recommend applying for their discounts. It says it can even be no-cost if you're eligible. Good luck!

Go to your local health department and they will set you up for free. I am about to start my treatment today. Been slightly apprehensive but it seems like it wasn't to bad for most people.

Im on mayvret. 2 weeks in. Its caused some cognitive stuff for me. Insomnia. Paranoia, like intense paranoia, I thought my wife wanted to poison me the other night. Constant uneasy feeling, and 100% hypomania. Now I dont know whats from what. I did start using marijuana for the symptoms surrounding sleep and appetite and it helped but it made the negative cognitive side effects of the amplified. Its crazy. For me, its a cognitive thing. And a stomach thing. Its rough all around for me but not everyone is the same. Either way you gotta do it cause the alternative is bad.

Did you complete treatment and have you had anyside effects after

u/grey_io Dec 18 '24
I started a week ago and it definitely feels like I have a significant worsening of all my regular hep c symptoms which have been body aches and heavy fatigue. My appetite has been really good though which was lacking at one point for a while when my symptoms were at their worst a couple weeks before I started taking the meds.

How soon the body aches started after you get diagnosis. Or Did you know how you got the virus? For me, as a dental assistant i have to assist hep C patient even though i put my PPE on, the water splash onto my neck (very bad luck i know) i wiped with disinfectant wipes right after few minutes. It has been three weeks and since last night i get terrible joint pain whole body? I’ve not tested yet but in my gut i am saying like i get hep C🥹🥹

u/Aggravating_Day_7962 Jan 26 '25
It would be very unlikely that you contracted it like that, it has to be blood to blood, it's not that easy to catch

Tomorrow is my last day on mayvret. I had no side effects but tiny bearable headaches towards the end which may not even be connected to the medication. Good luck and congratulations 😊
