    I don’t know. 400 mg, tightly packed leaves about 1/16 inch remaining in a 00 cap. No room for the 90 mg ledipasvir-so I make 1 sof, 1 led. I think you could get 490 mg in two 0 sized caps.
    You can make it work.

    Maybe put 200 sof and 45 led in each cap. Just take two a day. That way they are all the same.

    Hey! 400mg in a 0 capsule is not possible to me, depends on how you’re going to fill them but…huhmn…no…not easy at all…Daclatasvir slides more like sand, sofosbuvir is much thicker!

    I don’t know if it has to be equal, as long as you take the right amount of both in you it’s ok…245 mg per capsule, it’s possible

    Thank you. I hope they haven’t shipped, will try to switch it tomorrow for 00. I live close to torpac, will go and exchange it.

    The Profunnel works great, but you can just fill the large, bottom portion. I imagine, from my experiece, you could tighly pack 420-430 mg of sofosbuvir in it. When you snap the smaller top portion on, there will be some space. So its not completely full. I don’t think the funnel is made to work any other way, but I don’t know that for certain.

    My first patient on generic APIs is now past SVR12. His method was simple – weigh on a teaspoon, swallow with water. Capsules are a convenience mechanism, as are tablets. Don’t over think it.

    If you want to use filler for volume based filling of multiple capsules simultaneously use lactose from the baby section of the chemist and grind the API and lactose together in a mortar and pestle to equalise particle size and ensure a uniform mix.


    YMMV
