Harvoni For Hepatitis C

Im halfway through a 12 week course and am exhausted for no reason.... I have only been sick twice from the drug but other than that a dull headache with sort of fogginess and extreme tiredness is really the only side effects for me... slightly upset in the stomach but I was before I started.... I was just reading that others felt tired too, well I hope it goes away soon... I thought I was just getting fat and lazy... hehe

Everything you've listed can be normal side effects of this medication, according to the U.S. FDA. You may also experience stomach pain and diarrhea.

They should go away, once you finish your course of treatment, but many people have reported that it sometimes takes a few months.

Is there anything else I can help with?

I started taking Harvoni 2 weeks ago. I feel fortunate that I am hardly having any side effects... I am extremely tired, and slight headaches - nothing I can't handle.. It is definitely worth it to be cured of this terrible disease..I actually feel better now than before I started the Harvoni.. You body is fighting this virus so it's working extra hard, the tiredness is to be expected- it means the drug is doing its job... But everyday that goes by the side effects seem to get less, and less... good luck and hope things get better for you..
