Viekira Pak Information:
What is Viekira Pak?
Viekira Pak is a drug combination containing ombitasvir, paritaprevir, ritonavir, and dasabuvir and may be prescribed to treat infections of hepatitis C. Ombitasvir is an HCV-NS5A inhibitor that stops the spread of the hepatitis C virus in the body; paritaprevir is a protease inhibitor that decreases HCV levels; ritonavir is a protease inhibitor that helps increase the amounts of paritaprevir in the body to improve its effectiveness; and dasabuvir, a non-nucleoside NS5B polymerase inhibitor, decreases the amount of HCV in the body.
How do I take Viekira Pak?
Each carton of Viekira Pak contains a 28-day supply of the combined medications. Doses are taken orally on a daily basis with food. Each daily dosing packet has two pink pills (containing ombitasvir, paritaprevir, and ritonavir) and two beige pill (containing dasabuvir). The two pink pills and one of the beige pills are taken in the morning with food; the remaining dasabuvir pill (beige) is taken in the evening, also with food. The treatment program continues for twelve or twenty-four weeks, depending on the medical profile of the patient. Follow the instructions that accompanied the prescription and take all of the medication. The medications in the Viekira Pak control HCV but are not a cure; continue to take it even if you feel well.
Before taking Viekira Pak, tell your doctor if:
- You are allergic to ombitasvir, paritaprevir, ritonavir, dasabuvir or any of the ingredients in the Viekira Pak
- You are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or are nursing a child
- You are taking any prescription or non-prescription medications, vitamins, or supplements

What if I forget to take a dose of Viekira Pak?
If you forget to take all or part of the medications in the Viekira Pak, use the following guidelines: if you forget to take the tablets containing ombitasvir, paritaprevir, and ritonavir (the pink ones), take them with a meal as soon as you remember. However, if more than twelve hours have elapsed since the last dose, skip it and resume the regular schedule. If you missed the dose of dasabuvir (the beige pill), take it with a meal as soon as you remember unless more than six hours have elapsed, in which case you should skip it and resume the regular schedule. Do not increase the dosage or change the regimen to make up for any that were missed.
