About Mavyret 

Mavyret contains a combination of glecaprevir, an NS3/4A protease inhibitor, and pibrentasvir, an NS5A inhibitor. Glecaprevir and pibrentasvir are antiviral medications that prevent the hepatitis C virus (HCV) from multiplying in your body.

Mavyret is used to treat chronic hepatitis C in people infected with hepatitis C virus genotype 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. Mavyret is available only by prescription. It is available in a generic formulation under different brand names, including glecaprevir and pibrentasvir.

Mavyret may be prescribed as tablets or oral pellets. It’s always important to follow the specific instructions on your prescription, as they can vary based on the formulation and dosage prescribed.

If you're prescribed Mavyret, be sure to complete the entire course of the antiviral medication unless your healthcare professional specifically tells you to stop. The antiviral may not fully treat your chronic HCV infection if you don't complete your prescription.

  • Swallowing: Mavyret tablets should be swallowed whole with water. Do not crush, chew or break the tablets.

  • Missed dose: If you miss a dose of Mavyret, take it as soon as you remember. If it is close to the time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Take only a partial dose to make up for a missed dose.
