Suggest Low Budget Medication For Hepatitis C Infection

Had hepatis c and was treated two years ago with the pills and shots. I stopped doing drugs but started again and have hepatitis c. 11.0 I received the drugs first time free. Are the new drugs less costly ? Also I have been clean since February and have no plans to ever start again.

Hello,my name is dr.Dorina Gurabardhi.I understand your concern.
Treatment for hepatitis C, depending on:
-How damaged your liver is.
-Other health conditions you have.
-How much hepatitis C virus you have in your body.
-What type (genotype) of hepatitis C you have.
Treatment with a combination of antiviral medicines can fight the viral infection and prevent serious liver problems .
I suggest you to see a gastroenterologyst for a proper treatment after an examination.
Hope my answer was helpful.If you have any other question Ill be glad to help.
Regards,
dr.Dorina Gurabardhi
