Myhep Dvir Tablet is an antiviral medicine used to treat chronic HCV (Hepatitis C virus) infection. It contains Daclatasvir and Sofosbuvir. This medicine works by blocking a key protein and enzyme in the hepatitis C virus, preventing the virus from making copies of itself and assembling new virus particles. This helps stop the spread of the virus in the body. In some cases, this medication may cause common side effects such as nausea, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, difficulty sleeping, dizziness, tiredness, headache, insomnia (sleeplessness), and joint or muscle pain. Before taking Myhep Dvir Tablet, inform your doctor if you have any allergies, are pregnant or breastfeeding, are taking any other medications, or have any pre-existing medical conditions.
