I had hep c, genotype 3 for years with my viral load over 6 million. The doctor prescribed to take Epclusa but i was very worried because my insurance rejected then someone told me about generic epclusa. I was afraid to take it that it’ll help or not but I had no other choice so I bought generic epclusa “Velpanat” from medixocentre.com . I took this med for 30 days with very minimal side effects over a year ago. I’m extremely proud to say it worked! I’m cured! I did a blood test. I can’t say enough good things about this drug! It truly saved my life. Good luck on your journey. I hope it does the same for everyone that needs it.” Highly recommend this drug!
