Daclatasvir belongs to the class of medications called antiviral agents. Daklinza is used by adults, in combination with other antiviral medications to treat chronic (long-term), Hepatitis C virus infections with hepatitis C genotypes 1, 2, or 3. It works by preventing the action of a specific protein that the virus needs to reproduce.

Daklinza may be available under multiple brand names and/or in several different forms. Any specific brand name of Daklinza may not be available in all of the forms or approved for all of the conditions discussed here. As well, some forms of Daklinza may not be used for all of the conditions discussed here.

Your doctor may have suggested Daklinza for conditions other than those listed in these drug information articles. If you have not discussed this with your doctor or are not sure why you are taking Daklinza, speak to your doctor. Do not stop taking Daklinza without consulting your doctor.

Do not give Daklinza to anyone else, even if they have the same symptoms as you do. It can be harmful for people to take Daklinza if their doctor has not prescribed it.

The recommended adult dose of daclatasvir is 60 mg taken by mouth once a day. It must be taken with another antiviral medication such as sofosbuvir. Ribavirin may also be added to this combination, however daclatasvir should not be taken with only ribavirin. Depending on the type of hepatitis C virus you have and other characteristics of your illness, your doctor may recommend that you take Daklinza for 12 to 24 weeks.

Daclatasvir may be taken with food or on an empty stomach.

Many things can affect the dose of medication that a person needs, such as body weight, other medical conditions, and other medications. If your doctor has recommended a dose different from the ones listed here, do not change the way that you are taking the medication without consulting your doctor.

It is important to take Daklinza exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you miss a dose, and remember less than 20 hours after the scheduled dose, take it as soon as possible and continue with your regular schedule. If it is less than 4 hours until your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one. If you are not sure what to do after missing a dose, contact your doctor or pharmacist for advice.

Store Daklinza at room temperature in the original container. Protect it from light and moisture, and keep it out of the reach of children.
