Core Tip |
The combination pegylated interferon alfa + ribavirin has been used infrequently in patients with Human immunodeficiency virus/hepatitis C virus (HIV/HCV) coinfection because of its limited efficacy in these patients, the high prevalence of medical and psychiatric comorbidities and the high incidence of serious adverse reactions. The introduction of directly acting antivirals has radically changed the scenario of the HIV/HCV coinfection treatment shown comforting preliminary results in terms of efficacy, tolerability and adherence. This paper provides a quick and comprehensive implementation guide to the managment of HIV/HCV patients in a historical moment in which it is not yet clear what is the best treatment.
