  • Cases of symptomatic bradycardia, as well as serious cardiac arrest and cases that may require pacemaker intervention, may occur when amiodarone is coadministered with Hepcvir L tablets. Coadministration of amiodarone with Hepcvir L is not recommended. 
  • The concomitant use of Ledipasvir; Sofosbuvir and P-gp inducers (such as rifampin and St. John’s wort) may significantly scale down the plasma concentrations of ledipasvir and sofosbuvir and may lead to a decreased therapeutic effect of Hepcvir L tablets. Therefore, the use of this drug with P-gp inducers (such as rifampin or St. John’s wort) is not recommended.
  • Patients taking treatment with Hepcvir L who develop signs or symptoms of bradycardia should seek prompt medical evaluation. Symptoms may include shortness of breath, near-fainting or fainting, chest pains, dizziness or lightheadedness, malaise, weakness, tiredness, confusion, or memory problems.
