Safety and Drug-Drug Interaction Burden of Direct-Acting Antiviral Therapy for Hepatitis C: A Single-Center Community Hospital Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Hepatol
Background Polypharmacy leads to drug–drug interactions (DDIs) with direct‐acting antivirals (DAAs). We quantified the DDI burden (Liverpool categories) and evaluated its association with effectiveness and safety. We assessed renal function as a predictor of adverse events (AEs) and reported loss to follow‐up (LTFU). Methods We retrospectively analyzed
