Summary

Patients with chronic hepatitis C that are under opiate substitution therapy are likely to have psychiatric comorbidities such as depression; hence an Interferon based therapy is contraindicated. Additionally many of these patients have a borderline compliance, which makes it impossible to treat them at specialized hepatological centers. An ideal opportunity to treat this patients is treatment with DAAs (Direct Acting Antiviral) which can be administered daily together with the opiate substitution therapy at a low threshold facility.
