Synopsis: Hepatitis C Doesn't Have to Be a Lifelong Illness

Curing Hepatitis C provides the latest information to guide you through the diagnosis and treatment of hepatitis C. If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with hepatitis C, this book provides an indispensable and comprehensive overview of everything you need to know to take the right steps toward a cure.

For the nearly 160 million people worldwide and 4 million Americans diagnosed with hepatitis C, there is now hope. Although hepatitis C was once considered incurable, medical and technological innovations have made a cure possible. A new frontier of treatment options has improved upon previous methods by curbing side-effects more effectively and working to eradicate hepatitis C entirely.

Curing Hepatitis C also includes:
* Easy-to-understand explanations of the nature of hepatitis C
* The revealing truth of misconceptions about hepatitis C
* Tips to prevent, diagnose, cope with, and ultimately cure this disease
* An overview of types of tests and how to understand your results
* Breakthrough treatments and medications for hepatitis C, such as triple therapy
* The next generation of treatments including interferon-free regimens, QUAD therapy, host-acting antivirals, and more
