| The HIV-treating community has begun to appreciate the frequency and severe consequences of coinfection with HCV. The interactions of these viruses and the resulting issues of liver impairment and drug-induced hepatotoxicity are challenging for experts in either infection, but pose particular difficulties as one attempts to treat both of these simultaneously.

It should be consulted by any healthcare provider beginning to develop treatment programs for these patients.” |
