    But if RBV is in the mix it would be significantly longer than six months! James, over to you on that one.

    The half life of Riba is 12 days so we would need 6 times as long as the Ledipasvir – about 36 months

    The rule of thumb would be 3 months per day of half life.


    YMMV

    So don’t want to go off subject too much,but as far as some of the supplements or foods I stopped taking during sof/dac tx, can I start taking these again at EOT? Or is it better to wait a while?

    According to this article, we each have about 32.7 Trillion cells in our bodies.

    http://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/there-are-372-trillion-cells-in-your-body-4941473/?no-ist

    Now, 32.7 trillion = 32.7 * 10^12. So if you are thinking about how much of an unwanted drug molecule you might want to have in your body, wouldn’t it be reasonable to say you’re pretty safe if you get down to less than about one molecule per cell?

    Or in terms of moles, your pretty clean once you get down to about 6.023*10^23 / 3.27*10^13 = 2*10^-10 = 20 nano-moles?

    Me, I’m pretty sure I’ve got nanomoles of all kinds of crap in my body, but it probably isn’t doing any harm (and I don’t believe in homeopathy).

    So wouldn’t this be a “safe enough” point at which to break out the champagne and have an early night?

    [… Just a thought, since getting pregnant is physically impossible for me as I am only a cartoon character… ;) ]
