Caution For Usage
Instruction for use: The film-coated tablet is for oral use. Patients should be instructed to swallow the tablet whole. The film-coated tablet should not be chewed or crushed, due to the bitter taste of the active substance.
The tablet should be taken with food (see Pharmacology: Pharmacokinetics under Actions).
Patients should be instructed that if vomiting occurs within 2 hours of dosing an additional tablet should be taken. If vomiting occurs more than 2 hours after dosing, no further dose is needed. These recommendations are based on the absorption kinetics of sofosbuvir and GS-331007 suggesting that the majority of the dose is absorbed within 2 hours after dosing.
If a dose is missed and it is within 18 hours of the normal time, patients should be instructed to take the tablet as soon as possible and then patients should take the next dose at the usual time. If it is after 18 hours then patients should be instructed to wait and take the next dose at the usual time.
Patients should be instructed not to take a double dose.
