Generic Daklinza Information

Introduction

Daklinza (generic name : daclatasvir) is a direct‑acting antiviral (DAA) approved for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The drug belongs to the class of NS5A inhibitors, which block a key protein needed for viral replication. In Hong Kong, HCV remains a public‑health concern, with an estimated prevalence of .5 % in the adult population and a growing number of cases linked to intravenous drug use and unsafe medical practices. Daklinza, supplied by Bristol‑Myers Squibb, offers a short, well‑tolerated oral regimen that can be combined with other DAAs to achieve cure rates above 95 % across most genotypes.

What is Daklinza?

Daklinza is a tablet formulation containing the active compound daclatasvir (60 mg per tablet). It was developed by Bristol‑Myers Squibb in collaboration with Janssen Pharmaceuticals and received regulatory approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2015, followed by licensing in the European Union, Japan, and Hong Kong. The medication is classified as an NS5A replication‑complex inhibitor, a subclass of direct‑acting antivirals that target the non‑structural protein 5A of HCV.

How Daklinza Works

Daclatasvir binds to the NS5A protein, which plays a dual role in HCV replication and assembly of infectious virions. By preventing NS5A from adopting its functional conformation, Daklinza halts the formation of the replication complex, leading to a rapid decline in viral load. The inhibition is potent and genotype‑independent, which is why Daklinza can be paired with other DAAs (such as sofosbuvir or ledipasvir) to create pan‑genotypic regimens. Pharmacokinetic studies show a median time to peak plasma concentration of about 2–4 hours, a half‑life of approximately 15 hours, and hepatic metabolism via CYP3A4. These properties support once‑daily dosing without the need for food restrictions.

Conditions Treated with Daklinza

• Chronic hepatitis C infection (all genotypes) – When combined with sofosbuvir, Daklinza is approved for 12‑week treatment of genotype 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 infections, including patients with compensated cirrhosis.
• HCV infection in patients with HIV co‑infection – Clinical trials demonstrated comparable cure rates (SVR12 > 90 %) in HIV‑positive individuals when used with sofosbuvir.
• HCV infection after liver transplantation – In selected transplant recipients, Daklin‑based regimens have been used safely to prevent graft reinfection.

In Hong Kong, the main genotype is 3, followed by genotype 1. Daklinza’s pan‑genotypic activity makes it especially valuable for the local epidemiology, allowing clinicians to prescribe a single regimen rather than genotype‑specific options.

Patient Groups Most Likely to Benefit

• Adults with chronic HCV infection who are treatment‑naïve or have previously failed interferon‑based therapy.
• Patients with compensated cirrhosis (Child‑Pugh A), as Daklinza‑containing regimens remain effective and well tolerated.
• Individuals co‑infected with HIV, provided there are no contraindicated drug–drug interactions with antiretroviral therapy.
• Patients preferring an all‑oral, interferon‑free regimen to avoid injection‑related side effects and prolonged treatment durations.

Contra‑indications or cautionary use include:

• Severe hepatic impairment (Child‑Pugh C) – limited data.
• Concurrent use of strong CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., rifampin, carbamazepine) – may reduce efficacy.
• Pregnant or breastfeeding women – safety not established; alternative regimens should be considered.

Risks, Side Effects, and Interactions

Common

• Fatigue
• Headache
• Nausea
• Diarrhoea

These events are typically mild to moderate and often resolve without dose adjustment.

Rare

• Elevated liver enzymes (ALT/AST)
• Insomnia
• Rash (maculopapular)

Patients should report persistent jaundice or unexplained abdominal pain, as these may signal hepatic decompensation.

Serious

• Hepatic decompensation in patients with underlying cirrhosis
• Severe hypersensitivity reactions (anaphylaxis, angio‑edema)

Immediate medical attention is required if any signs of a serious reaction occur.

Clinically Relevant Drug–Drug Interactions

• CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., St John’s wort, phenytoin) – can lower daclatasvir exposure, potentially leading to virologic failure.
• CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, clarithromycin) – increase exposure; dose adjustment of daclatasvir to 30 mg may be necessary- HIV protease inhibitors boosted with ritonavir – may raise daclatasvir levels; monitor for toxicity.
• Amiodarone – co‑administration associated with bradycardia when combined with certain other DAAs; careful cardiac monitoring advised.

Practical Use: Dosing, Missed Dose, Overdose

• Standard dosing – One 60 mg tablet taken orally once daily, with or without food.
• Combination regimens – When paired with sofosbuvir, the recommended course is 12 weeks for most genotypes; some genotype 3 patients with cirrhosis may require 24 weeks.
• Missed dose – Take the forgotten tablet as soon as remembered on the same day; do not double the next day’s dose.
• Overdose – While no specific antidote exists, overdose is unlikely to be life‑threatening due to the drug’s safety profile. Patients should seek immediate medical evaluation; supportive care is the mainstay.
• Precautions – Avoid concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 inducers unless a dose adjustment is made. Alcohol consumption does not directly interact with daclatasvir but can worsen liver disease; patients are encouraged to limit intake.

FAQ

• Is Daklinza available in both brand‑name and generic forms in Hong Kong?
  Yes, the original brand‑name product is marketed as Daklinza, while several generic versions containing the same active ingredient, daclatasvir, are also authorized. Generic options are typically less expensive and can be ordered through our online pharmacy.

• Does Daklinza require any special storage conditions?
  The tablets should be stored at room temperature, between 15 °C and 30 °C, in a dry place away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture. Keep the bottle tightly closed and out of reach of children.

• Can I take Daklinza while drinking alcohol?
  Alcohol does not directly interact with daclatasvir, but it can exacerbate underlying liver disease. Patients with HCV are advised to limit alcohol consumption to reduce additional hepatic stress.

• What packaging will I receive when ordering Daklinza online?
  Each order is shipped in discreet, tamper‑evident packaging that contains a sealed bottle of the tablets, a printed medication guide, and a copy of the professional evaluation report.

• Is it legal to import Daklinza for personal use into Hong Kong?
  Personal importation of prescription medicines is permitted when the product is for a bona‑fide medical need and accompanied by a valid prescription. Our service ensures compliance by providing the necessary prescription documentation after professional evaluation.

• Are there any known differences in formulation between regions (e.g., US vs EU vs Asia)?
  All approved formulations contain 60 mg of daclatasvir per tablet and meet international GMP standards. Minor excipient variations may exist but do not affect clinical efficacy or safety.

• Can Daklinza be used as part of a telemedicine‑based treatment plan?
  Yes, many Hong Kong healthcare providers incorporate Daklinza into remote HCV management protocols. Our online pharmacy supports telemedicine by providing a seamless prescription fulfillment process after the virtual consultation.

• How long does it take to achieve a cure after completing therapy?
  Virologic cure, defined as sustained virologic response at week 12 (SVR12), is assessed 12 weeks after the final dose. The majority of patients who attain SVR12 remain HCV‑free long‑term.

• What should I do if I develop a rash while taking Daklinza?
  Mild rashes are common and may resolve without intervention. However, if the rash spreads, is accompanied by fever, or shows signs of an allergic reaction (e.g., swelling, difficulty breathing), seek medical attention promptly.
