  • Note: HCV = hepatitis C virus, NR = not recommended, RBV = ribavirin.

  • * Where indicated, to be dosed according to weight: ≤ 75 kg: 1000 mg daily; ≥ 75 kg: 1200 mg daily. See Appendix 1 for reference supporting recommendations.

  • Resistance testing suggested for people with genotype 1a infection with compensated cirrhosis before treatment with ledipasvir/sofosbuvir or elbasvir/grazoprevir. If resistance to nonstructural 5A (NS5A) inhibitors is present, treatment should be extended to 16 weeks with the addition of weight-based ribavirin.

  • Resistance testing suggested for people with genotype 3 infection with compensated cirrhosis before treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir. If resistance to NS5A inhibitors is present, addition of weight-based ribavirin may be considered.
