Does Ribavirin Cause Memory Loss And Short Temper In The Long Run?

Can you tell me the name of the manufacture for the drug: RIBAVIRIN? I have heard that some of the side affects of this drug last for years, memory loss, personally changes are short tempered to name a few. Is this true? I have friends that are experiencing these side affects, years after they have taken this drug. This is a bad drug, even if it cures Hep-C. Sincerely; Linda Bivins
