Sofovir Tab

Sofovir contains Sofosbuvir, a medicine belonging to the class of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs).
It works by inhibiting the NS5B RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, an enzyme that Hepatitis C virus needs to replicate its genetic material. By blocking this enzyme, Sofovir helps suppress HCV replication and supports the body's ability to clear the virus when used as part of an appropriate antiviral treatment regimen.
