10 Hepatitis C Treatments You Need to Know

Liver Transplant

If your liver is seriously damaged and cannot function properly, then the only choice left for you is a liver transplant. Keep in mind that this isn’t a sure thing because you might wait for many years and some people would even die while they are waiting for the surgeon. During this process, the doctor will remove most of the damaged liver and replace it with a healthy one from a donor. Liver tissues could grow quickly and regenerate after that. However, this does not actually cure hepatitis C. Instead, it just relieves the symptoms, and you still have to take antiviral drugs. [2]
