Is it that simple?

So we can just fly to India to purchase harvoni? Seriously ? I mean is it that simple? What city and what company do you purchase it from? How do I get my hands on the meds once I get to India??

I am on Harvoni now, and cleared the virus completely after 4 weeks of 1 Harvoni pill a day, no side effects but some weakness & headaches, but those could be from my cirrhosis too... ... this after unsuccessfully treating with pegatron (interfuron & ribravarin) for 48 weeks in 07-08 with HELLISH side effects

Good for you Albany!  Glad to hear it!  I don't have a problem with Harvoni, just the price tag in the US.  good luck!!

I appreciate your comment but it's totally haphazard.  There are reputable pharmacies and drug manufacturers selling drugs to a ton of Americans and everyone else.  Few ppl actually go overseas to buy, there's no need for it.  You have Dr. James Freeman in Australia and Greg Jefferys helping ppl as well. If you need drugs for HepC you can buy them and they are getting cheaper and cheaper.  You can also wait, but just so you know Gilead is trying to stop all this as it's cutting into their huge profit margin.  Look at nash4all's comment and I don't even know that person.

You know if you don't want to order from China, you don't have to.  There are pharmacies you can order from or you can order from the fixhepc buyers club.  The drugs cost less than $1500 and they are totally tested and distributed to you by a licensed doctor, check it out.

There is no harm buying from India if you know trusted sources. I also wasafraid to go but took help from Greg Jefferys and also confirmed few people who got medicines from the person i bought medicines.
So overall it was a best and safe trip for me.

No, I didn't even cap them up yet.  Just got my powders a little over a week ago, still gotta take some blood tests, see my doctor etc.  I ordered my empty capsules though so that's a start.  I plan on starting tx in a month or so.  Just so you know the doctor from the buyers club in Australia has bought a huge amount of powders from Mesochem and tested each and every one and never had a problem.  Not only that, there's a ton of ppl who have ordered from Mesochem and are SVR today, check out the link.

You don't have to fly to India, there are safe and legal ways to order them and have them shipped to your home. I live in Colorado and mine arrive today via FedEx.
