Evaluating utilization and management of comedications for DDIs among HCV patients initiating DAAs (New Hall) - Jan 6, 2024 - Abstract #APASL2024APASL_717; Background and Aims: This analysis compared rates and management of comedications with drug-drug interactions (DDI) risk among patients initiating direct-acting antiviral (DAA) treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) or glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (GLE/PIB) for chronic hepatitis C (HCV). Use of DDI comedications was identified among a substantial proportion of patients, with higher rates in GLE/PIB initiators.
