Years ago, Hep C treatments took a long time and required injections. Newer treatments for Hep C, called direct-acting antiviral regimens, are the standard care for Hep C and help stop the virus from spreading to other cells. These treatments all oral and can be completed in as few as 8-12 weeks, with very few side effects. Additionally, many of today’s treatments have high cure rates of 95% or higher. A patient is considered cured if the virus is not detectable in the blood months after treatment has ended

Most people with Hep C don’t have noticeable symptoms at first-or ever. Most people can carry the virus for years and not know they have it. The most common symptoms are tiredness, depression, joint pain and vague abdominal discomfort. Even if you do not have any symptoms, Hep C can be a serious illness that can lead to other health problems, such as cirrhosis and liver cancer.

We offer a treatment for Hepatitis C with prescription medicines, such as Epclusa.  These Hepatitis C treatment regimens have extremely high success rates, with very few side effects. There is about a 95% cure rate overall. The treatment period is typically between eight and 12 weeks, and we will help you every step of the way.
