Liver Extract and Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir

We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.

No Known Interaction Found

We did not find a documented interaction between Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir and Liver Extract in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.

If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.

Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

What Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Liver Extract. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself. Knowing the drug’s own list makes it easier to work out the likely cause if something new turns up while you take both. 5 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • A slow heartbeat Worth acting on
  • Yellowing of the skin or eyes Worth acting on
  • Low mood Worth acting on
  • A severe allergic reaction Worth acting on
  • Liver problems Worth acting on
  • Trouble sleeping
  • Swelling
  • Tiredness

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir.

How to take them

Some Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir Products Have a Food Rule — Liver Extract Should Not Break It

At least one FDA label for a product containing Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir says to take it with food. If you take Liver Extract on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate — and take Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir with a meal where the label says to.

This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir products can carry different directions, and extended-release forms often differ from immediate-release ones. The label we read is quoted below — check the directions on your own box or bottle, or ask your pharmacist, for how to take the exact product you were given.

( 2.1 ) Recommended dosage: One tablet (400 mg of sofosbuvir, 100 mg of velpatasvir, and 100 mg of voxilaprevir) taken orally once daily with food.

From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir — where that label names a specific product, the instruction is that product's. Read the label on DailyMed ›

A food rule is not an interaction — it is about how much of the medicine you absorb. The directions that came with your own product, and your pharmacist, outrank anything on this page.

Overlapping uses

What Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir Is Prescribed For, and What Liver Extract Has Been Studied For

These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Liver Extract is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.

Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir is prescribed for: Vosevi is used to treat chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in adults who do not have cirrhosis or who have compensated cirrhosis (mild liver scarring that is still functioning). It is specifically for people who have already been treated with an HCV regimen before and need a different option. Vosevi is approved for adults with HCV genotype 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 who previously took a medicine that included an NS5A inhibitor. It is also approved for adults with genotype 1a or 3 who previously took sofosbuvir without an NS5A inhibitor.

Liver Extract has been studied for:

  • Hepatitis C studied, not established Liver Extract has been studied for this. Natural Medicines rates the evidence: Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate Read what the research shows

    Liver Extract for hepatitis c

    Preliminary clinical research suggests that intravenous treatment with liver extract plus flavin adenine dinucleotide improves response to interferon-beta therapy in patients with hepatitis C. Also, giving a specific combination of liver extract and flavin adenine dinucleotide (Adelavin) intravenously or intramuscularly appears to improve hepatitis C virus RNA levels in patients with hepatitis C who are being treated…

Effectiveness ratings and the research summaries above are the verbatim record from the Natural Medicines database, which grades evidence from “Effective” down to “Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate”. A rating below the top of that scale means researchers have looked at it — not that it works, and never that it can stand in for a prescribed medicine. Do not stop or replace Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir on your own; if you are taking Liver Extract for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.

“Vosevi (sofosbuvir, velpatasvir, and voxilaprevir) cures hepatitis C over a single short course, and that is exactly why I would be genuinely careful with supplements while taking it. Anything that drags its blood levels down can cost you the cure itself.”

About Liver Extract

What is Liver Extract?

  • Anemia and low iron
  • Vitamin B12 support
  • General energy and fatigue
  • Nutritional support for athletes
  • Liver health support

Liver extract is a dried or concentrated form of animal liver that is naturally rich in iron, vitamin B12, vitamin A, and other nutrients. It was once used to treat certain anemias before purified vitamins became available, but today there is little modern evidence that it offers benefits beyond what a balanced diet or standard supplements provide. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using it, especially if you are pregnant, have liver disease, or have iron overload conditions.

Liver tissue, usually from cattle (beef) or pork · Capsules, tablets, powders, desiccated (dried) liver supplements, and injectable forms (prescription/historical)

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Liver Extract is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Liver Extract record says about it on its own.

Liver Extract: dosing

There is no official, standardized dose of liver extract, and products vary widely in how concentrated they are. Different brands also contain different amounts of vitamin A, iron, and B12.The safest approach is to follow the dose on the product label and not exceed it. They can help you decide whether you actually need it and whether a standard, purified vitamin would be a safer, more reliable choice.

Is it safe to take Liver Extract with Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir?

Should I take Liver Extract and Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir at the same time of day?

If you take Liver Extract on an empty stomach out of habit, keep them separate and take Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir with a meal where the label says to.

This is about absorption, not an interaction.
Are Liver Extract and Sofosbuvir, Velpatasvir, Voxilaprevir used for the same thing?

This page lists the shared uses and how strong the evidence is for Liver Extract in each.
