    hi Max,

    Generic Sovaldi was available in Egypt already for a while, many Russian & Eastern Europeans do buy their Sovaldi’s there , apparently available in Egyptian’s pharmacy shops with script.
    Now it looks they are going to produce their own version of Harvoni & Daclatasvir, excellent news! the more the better!

    The product names for Sovaldi in Egypt that I came across :

    MPI Viropack – firm Marcyrl,
    Grateziano – firm European Egyptian Pharmaceutical Industries (Pharco),
    Gratisovir – firm Pharco Pharmaceutical,
    Sofolanork – firm Biomed,
    Sofocivir – firm ZetaPharm.

    I only just started to look into that, so not sure if they are as effective as other generic Sof from other firms & if anyone tested them independently. Maybe someone here has experienced them or know of someone who takes them?

    For Europeans Egypt is much closer to fly to as compared to going to India or Bangladesh or Australia, although with all the fightings in the Arab’s countries it is probably not very safe to do so at the moment.

    Very good news!

    hi,
    I could not answer that for certain & googling the subject does not bring any more clarity.
    I believe it is only some Indians & Bangladeshi drugs manufacturing companies that have the Gilead licence.
    Hope someone will correct me if this is wrong info,
    The questions I was more interested in are; are those drugs effective? are they safe? have they been tested anywhere ?

    This forum is quickly becoming a global hub for anyone who is interested in generic HCV meds so I was hoping that maybe there is a member here who has used those meds already successfully & could share their experience?

    I think the link changed. I amended it in the previous post.
