Whilst the price of “brand” versions of Hepatitis C medication ranges from US$20,000 to US$90,000 per treatment, the existence of generic versions of these drugs means that there is an affordable treatment option for people with Hepatitis C who can not afford the price of brand drugs such as Harvoni and Epclusa. All licensed generic Hepatitis C medication is manufactured under license from Gilead Sciences in FDA and WHO approved facilities and is chemically identical to brand versions.

The reason that generic Hepatitis C medicines are so relatively cheap is because the these drugs are not expensive to manufacture. The high prices for the brand versions, such as Epclusa and Harvoni, are only so high because of the huge profit margins put on these drugs by their manufacturer.

The cost of generic Hepatitis C medication is determined by the type of medication you require. Different genotypes of Hepatitis C are treated with different combinations of Hep C drugs (These new Hep C drugs are known as Direct Acting Antivirals or DAAs).

Epclusa (Sofosbuvir 400 mg + Velpatasvir 100 mg) is currently the most effective treatment for Hepatitis C genotype 3.

Epclusa will also effectively treat all other genotypes of Hepatitis C.

Licensed generic Epclusa costs US$950 for 12 weeks treatment (84 pills @ one pill per day) including delivery.


Harvoni (Sofosbuvir 400 mg + Ledipasvir 90 mg) was originally designed to treat Hep C genotype 1. It is generally considered the most effective treatment for Hepatitis C genotype 1.

Harvoni is not the optimum treatment for any other form of Hep C.

Sofosbuvir + Daclatasvir 

Sofosbuvir 400 mg + Daclatasvir 60 mg a cheap treatment options that is effective against all genotypes of Hepatitis C .

For all genotypes of Hepatitis C, that is G1, G2, G3, G4 and G5, Sofosbuvir + Daclatasvir is an excellent treatment option that has a significantly lower price than other Hepatitis C drugs. It is as effective against G1 as Harvoni and as effective as Epclusa for Genotype 2. The cost of generic Sofosbuvir + Daclatasvir is US$550 for 12 weeks treatment (2 pills per day for 84 days).
