Hi Wilko,

Couple of threads about things to avoid on Daclatasvir, just be aware in the second one that only the first four fruits are really a problem and garlic is probably since disproved but just don't eat several raw cloves at the same time as the Dac.

Regarding fats, there are some warnings about that going around but the only research I've seen involved taking it directly after a meal containing very high fat (from memory +30-40g?) in which case not as much was absorbed by your body. They suggested it wouldn't be a problem on normal diets. You can take Sof & Dac with or without food so if with then just make it a low fat meal. OTOH Ribavirin should be taken with some fat, in which case you may want to take It at a different time to the other meds.
