Epclusa contains a combination of sofosbuvir and velpatasvir. Sofosbuvir and velpatasvir are antiviral medications that prevent hepatitis C virus (HCV) from multiplying in your body.
Epclusa is used to treat chronic hepatitis C in adults and children 3 years of age and older (dosage is based on weight). It is sometimes given in combination with another antiviral medicine called ribavirin in people who also have advanced cirrhosis.
Epclusa treats specific genotypes of hepatitis C, and only in certain people. Use only the medications prescribed for you. Do not share your medicine with other people.
Epclusa is sometimes used in people who also have HIV. This medicine is not a treatment for HIV or AIDS.
