Daclatasvir

Daclatasvir is an orally available antiviral agent that inhibits the NS5A region of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) and is used in combination with other oral antiviral agents to treat chronic hepatitis C. Elevations in serum enzyme levels during daclatasvir therapy are uncommon, and it has yet to be convincingly implicated in cases of clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice. Nevertheless, and for unknown reasons, successful all-oral regimens of antiviral therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis C and cirrhosis is occasionally complicated by hepatic decompensation and may cause reactivation of hepatitis B in susceptible patients coinfected with the hepatitis B virus (HBV).
