I've had heartburn and stomach issues since taking the incevik. I believe it caused the problems, it's pretty potent stuff. Taking omeprazole for it now and it helps for sure. Hoping it is bearable when I start harvoni soon. I can still take the omeprazole when I'm on harvoni, just need to time it right.

Hi Manty,

Just saw this post left earlier and wanted to let you know that Sovaldi and Harvoni both are well known for causing heartburn. Don't take your standard aluminum or magnesium based antacids without discussing it with your doctor first. They can interfere with the absorption of the medication. Use our search function and enter Heartburn, you'll find several discussions on the subject.

Welcome! I'm glad you're here. You'll start to hear from the others shortly!
