Re: Viekira “3QD” quiz

I would bet it's a daily co-formulation of the "old" Viekira (the new part is dasabuvir as a QD instead of BID).

Exactly right. Actually, this question shouldn’t have been a quiz since Rick Gonzales mentioned the NDA submission of “3QD” and what it is during his opening remarks on ABBV’s 3Q15 CC. (I missed this on the first listen.)

If “3QD” is approved, users will take two identical pills at the same time, once per day. Two pills are needed due to the overall bulk.
