Hey Lon

The all orals are here now as Dee Dee mentioned, Sovaldi & Olyiso.

The Gilead company will most likely be approved in Oct. 2014 for their all oral Combo treatment which will include Sovaldi (GS7977) and Ledipasvir. This all oral combo will truly be a one pill treatment for HepC that will be not off label with many more to follow.

Lon if you plan to treat in 2015 you will most likely have multiple choices.
