MAVYRET Uses, Side Effects, Interactions, Warnings & Dosing
What is MAVYRET?
MAVYRET is the brand name for glecaprevir and pibrentasvir and is available as an oral tablet and pellets.
What dosages is MAVYRET available in?

What is MAVYRET used for?
MAVYRET is an antiviral and is used for the following:
- Chronic (long-term) hepatitis C genotype 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 infection in certain people age 3 years and older
- Hepatitis C genotype 1 infection in people age 3 years and older who were previously treated with an NS5A inhibitor or an HCV protease inhibitor (not both)
How does MAVYRET work?
MAVYRET contains two antiviral medications that work together to stop the hepatitis C virus (HCV) from making copies of itself in the body. The two medications are glecaprevir (a protease inhibitor) and pibrentasvir (an NS5A inhibitor). They work by attacking two different proteins in the virus. Using two medications that work in different ways can prevent HCV resistance, which is when the virus develops a defense against antivirals. As a result, the medications no longer work to fight the virus.
How do I take MAVYRET?
MAVYRET is dosed as follows:
- Adults, children age 12 years or older, and children who weigh at least 99 pounds: The recommended dose is 3 tablets by mouth once a day with food. The total daily dose is 300 mg of glecaprevir and 120 mg of pibrentasvir
- Children age 3 to 12 years old: The dose is based on your child’s body weight. The provider will determine the right dose for your child. In general, the recommended dose ranges from 3 to 5 packets of oral pellets by mouth once a day with food
- The treatment duration ranges from 8 to 16 weeks, depending on your previous HCV treatment regimens and your liver health
