I'm hcv+ geno typ3, my weight is 54 kg, hb is 13.8, i'm taking ribavirin 400mg bid with sovaldi, is it ok or should i take 500mg bid.plz advise.thanks?

Normal dose: 400 mg 2 times a day is the standard dose. It comes in 200 mg doses so would be hard to get 500 anyways. The best thing to do is ask your doctor. I would follow that advice myself.
