چکیده

In pakistan,we have 4.9% prevalence of hcv in general population,with 79% genotype 3. recently sofosbuvir has been made available at compassionate price in pakistan. management of chronic hepatitis c includes counseling of hcv patients,their proper assessment to select those who need antiviral therapy,initiation of appropriate antiviral agents & duration of therapy,along-with careful monitoring for safety and efficacy. hepatic status as well as previous history of hcv therapy needs to be taken in the consideration before starting antiviral therapy. other factors include co-morbid conditions like obesity,dm,nash,etc. treatment of special populations like liver transplant patients,patients with hbv co-infection,chronic kidney disease and hemoglobinopathies need special considerations when initiating hcv therapy. © 2016,postgraduate medical institute. all rights reserved.
