I was told that I could take the Riba and Incivik together, and I'm planning on doing that.

yes, the pegasys nurse said it was ok to take the ribavirin in the afternoon because it does affect some people's sleep.

The treatment chart I got from my Dr. the other day was Incivek 6-2-10  Ribavirin 8 & 8 and interferon friday pm what ever I choose. So it looks the same except I have 12 hours between the Riba and you have 8. I dont know if that matters. Sure seems like a ton of pills so afraid I will miss something. I do have a question, well actually a ton of questions tomorrow but one is that I did hear that the Riba can affect your sleeping, and I cant have that.
