Discourage Using PPIs With New Hep C Med Epclusa
Epclusa seems to work as well as other recent hep C meds...can be used for ANY hep C genotype...and patients use just a 12-week course.
But most hep C medications probably won't be on your hospital's formulary due to cost and procurement issues. Epclusa will cost about $75,000 per course...compared to about $55,000 for Zepatier and about $95,000 for Harvoni.
