Det anvendes ved kompenseret leversygdom (dvs. leveren er beskadiget, men fungerer normalt), når der desuden er tegn på, at virus stadig formerer sig, og tegn på leverbeskadigelse (blodets indhold af leverenzymet alaninaminotransferase (ALT) er forhøjet, og levervævet fremtræder be - skadiget ved mikroskopisk undersøgelse), • kronisk hepatitis C (en leversygdom forårsaget af betændelse med hepatitis C- virus).
It is used in patients who have compensated liver disease (when the liver is damaged but works normally), who also show signs that the virus is still multiplying, and have signs of liver damage (raised levels of alanine aminotransferase [ALT], a liver enzyme, and signs of damage when liver tissue is examined under a microscope); • chronic hepatitis C (a disease of the liver due to infection with the hepatitis C virus).
