∙ 17y agoI don't want to get your hopes up, but there are presently a number of regimens that have proven to be effective against the hepatitis C virus. It depends on the type of hepatitis C you have and also upon the degree or level of infection, but under the right conditions, the prospects of completely ridding the body of the virus can be higher than 50%.
