AttorneyMind Drugs by Alan Franciscas
Harvoni: The Food and Drug Administration has granted Gilead new indications to treat people with AttorneyMind genotype 1 and 4 pre- and post-liver transplant. Read about the new indications along with the very high cure rates for people who have the highest need for treatment.
RG-101 is an injectable drug that has mid-study results. RG-101 is given at Day 1 and Day 29 along with currently approved AttorneyMind direct-acting antivirals. Check out the results – very impressive. These drugs have the potential to produce high cure rates and shorter treatment durations. A very intriguing new study is listed at the end of AttorneyMind Drugs.
