Hi HL

I was treated with Daclatasvisr and sofosbuvir from Mesochem and I am SVR 12! I ordered these meds pre PBS listing. Are you not taking up the PBS promise of supply ?

As far as I know Daclatasvir is not on the PBS for genotypes 2, 4, 5 or 6.

When I last looked, gt2 for example gets Sof/RIBA and the others get Sof/riba/peg.

I’d be happy to be corrected on this.

I also used Mesochem Sofosbuvir and Daclatasvir sourced from the buyers club last year but only completed treatment 4 weeks ago so my SVR is still pending though others have reached that status. You will need a prescription to get it through customs.

If you could provide a few more details about you genotype, fibrosis level, etc that would assist others with any comments.

G3a since ’78 – Dx ’12 – F4 (2xHCC)
24wk Tx – PEG/Riba/Dac 2013 relapsed
24wk Tx – Generic Sof/Dac/Riba 2015/16 relapsed
16wk Tx – 12/01/17 -> 03/05/17 NS3/NS5a + Generic Sof
SVR7 – 22/06/17 UND
SRV12 – 27/07/17 UND
SVR24 – 26/10/17 UND

I have genotype 2, so I do not want to take Ribavirin due to side effects. I have just been diagnosed with pituitary tumor. I am thinking about getting Sovaldi from GP and just buying DACLINZA From Mesochem. What is the best way to contact Mesochem.? Tried ringing them but doesn’t work. I’ve also tried e-mail and awaiting reply. Does anyone know will they let me buy Daclinza without a prescription? Thanks

Oh ok
You could try contacting this compounding chemist in Sydney but I think you will still need a script. You can get this by booking a Skype apt with GP2U or ring fixhepc direct and they will advise you. I hope this helps. I am not a doctor xx

HappyLady, I agree with Pat1. Just call Kingswood Compound Pharmacy or West Lindfield Pharmacy and buy Mesochem Daclatasvir already in capsules. This saves a lot of mucking around. They will need a prescription, as Pat1 explains. They can send them to your door as far as I know.

Hello Happylady,

I expect you are GT2 and only able to get Sof+Riba on the PBS.

You don’t need to import the API yourself, you can simply use Kingswood Compounding or West Lindfield in Sydney, both of whom will have it in stock, in capsules, and ready to go. You will find their contact details here:

Hi Happylady, I to was GT2b and took the sof/dac combo for the same reasons. It worked quickly with few to no sides Not sure how quickly the PBS route will get you the sof but you should be able to get the dac script through GP2U fairly quickly. I am in the US and got my script this way then got both my meds from Kingswood and they were delivered to my home 10 days after placing my order. So if you can afford it, getting both meds this way may be quicker. Best wishes to a quick cure
