I am in week 5 of incivek 3 times a day, and riba 2 times a day, and pegysus once a week.  I have a hard time with the incivek and riba but have a few tips:  

half cup of cottage cheese with 4 tsps of Safflower Oil mixed in well, then top with one of those half cups of fruit salad for kids lunches - quick, not too heavy, and works well for me.  

I found it's important to take care of your bum as soon as you get runs, or burning.  Imodium and Prep H.  The more fat, the easier the stomach seems to handle the incivek.

I take incivek and riba night dose with an anti-nausea pill - works well.
