The much longed-for-and-awaited day of new hepatitis C treatment is upon us – and with it an avalanche of information about the wide array of new hep C drugs and drug combinations.
We welcome this information! We know it heralds huge improvements in new treatments that are nearly within reach! And, we at the Pacific Hepatitis C Network want to help make sense of this new and rapidly changing world of hep C treatment.
The Hepatitis C Treatment Information Project – or Hep C TIP – is your web-based hepatitis C treatment information toolkit for entering into that world and building your understanding about hep C treatment. This resource contains information and resources about hepatitis C treatment, including:
- Information about currently approved treatments in BC
- Information about new and emerging drugs and drug combinations for treating hep C
- Information about the drug approval process in Canada and BC
- Resources to help in getting ready for treatment, including stories from people who have been treated
Information on this site, including the Drug Pipeline Diagram, is updated whenever something new happens, such as drug approvals, new drugs in the pipeline, new resources, and other hepatitis C treatment news.
