Standardized treatment (24-week) with pegylated interferon and ribavirin induces sustained virological response in 80 % of patients with Hepatitis C (HCV) genotype 2 or 3. Most patients who are dependent on heroin and receiving methadone maintenance therapy (MMT) have been excluded from this treatment due to concerns about compliance. Short-term therapy (14 weeks) of other patient groups have shown promising results. The purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility, efficacy and adverse effects of short-term treatment in a group of MMT patients with chronic hepatitis C infection genotype 3.
