Mavyret is used to treat hepatitis C which is a viral infection that mainly affects the liver. When you have hepatitis C over time it can cause the liver to become damaged and not function properly. Some medicines, including some antibiotics, can have a bad effect on your body if your liver is impaired or damaged. This is known as a drug disease interaction. When you have hepatitis, it is important before you take any medicines, that you check the new medicine will not cause problems due to your liver issues.
