Drug

Inhibition

Induction

Substrate

Renal impairment

Hepatic impairment

Asunaprevir

Moderate inhibitor of CYP2D6

Weak inhibitor of CYP3A4 and P-gp

NA

Substrate of P-gp

No adjustment needed

No adjustment needed

Paritaprevir, ritonavir, and ombitasvir plus dasabuvir

Inhibitor of CYP3A4, CYP2D6, P-gp, OATP, and BCRP

Inhibitor of CYP1A2, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19 (based on ritonavir pharmacokinetics)

Substrate of CYP3A4, CYP2C8, and CYP2D6

Likely no adjustment needed

Not recommended in patients with CTP class B disease and contraindicated in patients with CTP class C disease

Simeprevir

Mild inhibitor of intestinal CYP3A and CYP1A2; mild inhibitor of OATP and P-gp

NA

Substrate of CYP3A

No adjustment needed

Should be used with caution in patients with CTP class B or C disease

Sofosbuvir

NA

NA

Substrate of P-gp

Not recommended if GFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m2

No adjustment needed
