What does it do?

Glecaprevir is an antiviral ingredient used to treat patients infected with the hepatitis C virus. This ingredient helps to inhibit the replication of the virus, preventing the spread of the infection. It is primarily used in combination with other antiviral medications.

Glecaprevir obstructs the function of specific proteins within the hepatitis C virus, interfering with the virus's proliferation process. This leads to a reduction in the viral load and helps to minimize liver damage.

Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.

Good to know

Unlike other antiviral medications, Glecaprevir acts by targeting the viral protease. As a result, the risk of developing resistance is low, and the treatment effect is generally excellent.
