Solvaldi mistake

[Patricia1957]

I am co infected with HIV and hep c genotype 1b. I started Solvaldi and Ribiviran 2 months ago. I just realized that for the last month I have taken 2 Solvaldi a day instead of 1. I do not feel but am a little concerned. Please let me know if I should do something immediately.

I did the same thing except for 1 day,, doubled up accidentally.  I called immediately.  You should too.  If it was my body an my liver, I wouldn't be able to get to the E.R. fast enough.  I do understand that happening,  these are STRONG meds an does mess with brain for some people.  Please take this seriously.......

Oh no. These drugs kick your azz. It's nothing to fool with call doc. Demand to speak to someone. Oh no. Talk about brain fog. How could have happened? So sorry. Everything happens for a reason I guess.
You need to go to ER but call doc first.

I just did some research for you and it said that you should go to the ER immediately.  Since this medication is so new, they currently have no data to determine the amount of toxicity to expect.
Better be safe then sorry.  I encourage you to go to the nearest ER.  If you have a friend or family member bring them with you.  I do hope that you take
this seriously.
Wish you well.

Call your doctor.  This has happened before with treatment.   You need to get more Sovaldi to stay on course.   Call right away.   As I remember the drug company was willing to help.

Best to you

Oh, I can see how that could happen. My first thought was you would have to get more Sovaldi, but since Sovaldi doesn't work without the Riba, I am at a loss. Have you had a viral load since you started?
Did they give you all your meds at one time?
I only get 4 weeks at a time.
