It's not a 100% cure rate - but you have a chance of 70%+ if you have genotype 2 or 3. You have a 40%+ chance if you have genotype 1.

How is hepatitis C treated and can hepatitis C be cured?

Hepatitis C is commonly treated with weekly injections of pegylated interferon alfa and a capsule of Ribavirin given twice daily. Interferon injections boost the immune system to attack liver cells infected with the hepatitis C virus and also inhibits viral replication. Ribavirin capsules inhibit the replication and infectivity of the hepatitis C virus.The treatment for Hepatitis C typically lasts 24-48 weeks. Hepatitis C is curable in more than 50% of patients, but a various number of factors influence the likelihood of a patient responding to treatment. Those factors are: strain of virus, gender, weight, viral load, age, and the extent of scarring in the liver.

What happens if you have one drink per day after recovering from alcoholic hepatitis?

You will almost certainly die much sooner than if you don't. Alcoholism is arrested, never cured. Drinking again will take you right back where you were, including the hepatitis (and holding yourself to only one drink a day will make you miserable). Don't try it.
