How it works

Sofosbuvir is a direct-acting antiviral agent against the hepatitis C virus [see Microbiology (12.4) ].

Peak level after0.5–2 h
How the body breaks it down

Sofosbuvir is extensively metabolized in the liver to form the pharmacologically active nucleoside analog triphosphate GS-461203.

With food

Effect of Food Relative to fasting conditions, the administration of a single dose of SOVALDI with a standardized high fat meal did not substantially affect the sofosbuvir C max or AUC 0–inf.
