Where are you from? What geno?
Dear All,
I am new joiner from New Delhi,India.
I work in Indian Pharma Company which is marketing Sofosbuvir and Hepatitis B drugs.
Generic Harvony is also coming to us in next week after Diwali,as per circulated news.
I am willing to share the recent news regarding Generic Sovaldi and Generic Harvoni from New Delhi.
Went to Dhaka three weeks ago to buy medicine. Contacted Incepta pharmaceutical went there showed them a letter that says I'm hcv positive but no mention of any drugs, and that was enough, amazing.
Bought 12 weeks course worth of pils
72400 taka. Started treatment same day.
Next day I felt a bit sick but nothing major. After first week it really felt good. I was in Bangladesh for three weeks
But really could do it all in one day.
I was prepared to go to doctor to get prescription because I only had that London homerton hospital letter with no mention of drugs, only saying that I've got hcv for 14 yeRs.
Went there to see that incepta and talk to them. Was really impressed with facilities. Showed my passport and that letter and they said its enough to get Twinvir. They took me to exchange shop to exchange GBP in their van with Incepta logo on it. Went back bought it got invoice as well. Rest of the time I traveled to cox's bazaar and spent time there. Second week it felt really different. My mind was never this clear ever. Now I'm in UK. Got back yesterday.
Country a bit shocking to be honest, I ve been in Thailand for leisure and it's heaven and hell in comparison.

We are launching Ladipasvir in First week of December month as per circulating news in India.
A doctor who is DCGI member disclosed me that they have approved Ladipasvir in India.
Only wait for final nod which is only possible by SOME GIFT to it's Members.
Hello there. It was shipped by Mesochem as powder. I encapsulated them my self. I got them in 5 days.
Thanks for the prompt reply darbara. I know all too well how the Indian govt./pharmaceuticals function (I'm Indian but don't live there anymore). Too many protocols and a 'please-all' attitude makes things move super slow. Add corruption on top of that and you know how crippled the system is. Oh well.
I'm guessing, Nepal there are less strict rules, and since it's a much much smaller country it's easier for them to pass a vote and begin distributing even.
We just need to be thankful that countries like India/Bangladesh/Nepal now have access to manufacture these drugs (or soon will have access) and ppl will at least have the option to buy from them in one way or another. Hope is on the way for us all, just a matter of a few weeks at most if all goes well.
Until then, just keep swimming, swimming, swimming....
What are the names of the 4 companies that are supposed to release the generic Harvoni in India? I only know Natco and i tried sending them an email regarding the release date, hopefully i'll hear something concrete from theme. (I'll update this community if i do). I plan to travel to India last week of December, so I'm really hoping it is out by then. Fingers crossed.
Meanwhile, stay healthy ya'll. If we are lucky, and are able to get the meds, we will all be able to toast a drink or two by March/April 2016. Till then, no alcohol!
Why two types? Lisof and Ledifos
It was shipped by mesochem? It was in capsules?
Are You said the general india harvoni? it was named lisof
After 32 days of sof+dac from Mesochem. Not detected alt and ast 10 and 16 . Now on week 8 . After many years of feeling tired all the time I am feeling fantastic now . I payed 1228 $ delivered by FedEx to my door. No need to go anywhere they send the mess.

Am praying that all of you waiting for generic harvoni can get yours soon too and start treating ...
God bless and best wishes always ....
Who has the news about India general harvoni in this week? I hope this week is a new beginning !
The delay of indian generic harvoni is the result of Indian bureaucrats and maybe corrupted. But who cares about them. Its a big game and 150 000 000 people surely will win. Chinese APIs are proven to be highly effective even better than original Harvoni. Crystalline Form I versus Form II. To prepare this APIs is a very easy task. Compounding Chemists in Australia can make an Australian generic equivalent of Harvoni. I think that soon there will be more generic harvoni.
Hi All,
Greg have a new alternative for generic harvoni (not twinvir, not indian harvoni for the moment).
Just contact him and let him know you are a patient. He will explain to you the new alternative which a tested generic harvoni.
