Sovela 400mg Tablets (Sofosbuvir)

How Does Sovela 400mg Tablet Work? 

Sovela 400mg Tablets, which contain sofosbuvir and velpatasvir, work by targeting the hepatitis C virus (HCV) to inhibit its replication.

Sofosbuvir: Acts as a nucleotide analog that inhibits the HCV NS5B RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, an enzyme essential for viral replication. It gets incorporated into the viral RNA chain, leading to premature termination of RNA synthesis, effectively stopping the virus from multiplying.

Velpatasvir: Functions as a non-structural protein 5A (NS5A) inhibitor, which disrupts the viral replication process by preventing the formation of the replication complex necessary for HCV to replicate its RNA.
