Best Answer

Each medication is different. Is the liver damaged to begin with? Prior to taking the medications is there drinking or disease? If you are following the directions for the medication like drinking enough water taking with or without foods damage MAY be lessened. Is there a different med that could be taken that poses less risk to the liver? Is the medication necessary or is there another option you can try first? Look up the medication on line and call your local pharmacy with any questions.

Is hepatitis c a liver cancer yes or no?

Hepatitis C is a viral infection that primarily affects the liver. While chronic hepatitis C can lead to serious liver complications, including cirrhosis (scarring of the liver) and liver cancer, it's important to note that not everyone with hepatitis C will develop liver cancer. Hepatitis C is a major risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which is the most common type of primary liver cancer. Chronic inflammation and liver damage caused by the hepatitis C virus over many years can contribute to the development of liver cancer. Regular monitoring, early detection, and appropriate medical management of hepatitis C are crucial in preventing or managing complications, including liver cancer. Advances in antiviral medications have made it possible to cure many cases of hepatitis C, reducing the risk of liver-related complications.
