For Hepatitis C "After treatment for 48 weeks with Rebetol combined with PegIntron, I no longer have the virus in my system. Side effects included extreme fatigue toward the end of treatment, along with flu-like symptoms every weekend after administering the shot of PegIntron on Fridays."

For Hepatitis C "48 weeks of treatment of HCV 1(a b) by NHS (UK national free Medicaid equivalent). Dosage was lowered at one point due to adverse side effects on blood count, re: hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, neutropenia. Post-treatment, suffered acute pancreatitis episode. Numerous other adverse side effects during and post-treatment, chronic (for 9 years) side effects attributable to either or both ribavirin and interferon - the more serious chronic effects include: depression, anxiety, memory impairment, fatigue, sleep disorder, concentration, and executive function impairment. Brief episode of delusion/psychosis during treatment. Initially responded but relapsed early during treatment despite rigorous adherence to treatment schedule."
