Core Tip Considering the quite high prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) co-infection in people living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLWH), along with the interplay of HCV and human immunodeficiency virus infections, the usefulness of direct acting antivirals (DAAs) therapy regimen for the cure of HCV in this context appears crucial. However, apart from several known drug-drug interactions between highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) and DAAs, the metabolic impact of HCV eradication in terms of worsening of lipid profile as well as the improvement of glucose metabolism must be taken into account. The treatment of HCV infection in PLWH under HAART represents a challenge as well as a great opportunity for clinicians and deserves attention.
