What is Mavyret?
In August 2017 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the prescription medication Mavyret™ (glecaprevir and pibrentasvir). Mavyret is a fixed-dose combination of glecaprevir, a hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3/4A protease inhibitor, and pibrentasvir, an HCV NS5A inhibitor, and is indicated for the treatment of patients with chronic HCV genotype 1-6 infection without cirrhosis and with compensated cirrhosis. MAVYRET is also indicated for the treatment of adult patients with HCV genotype 1 infection, who previously have been treated with a regimen containing an HCV NS5A inhibitor or an NS3/4A protease inhibitor, but not both.
The active ingredients per tablet of Mavyret are 100 mg glecaprevir and 40 mg pibrentasvir.
