Hello,
Hepatitis C chronic infection cannot be treated.
The anti viral medication can be prescribed If liver enzymes value high and viral load is more.
But it cannot cure hepatitis C.
You need to follow up your gastroenterologist regularly because hepatitis C can cause chronic liver disease.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
