Hepatitis C and B viruses: the new opportunists in HIV infection
Abstract
Coinfection with HIV accelerates disease progression in both hepatitis C virus (HCV) and hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Management of coinfected patients is complicated by a number of factors, including disease characteristics, drug-drug interactions, and augmented toxicity. Results of HCV and HBV treatment trials in HIV-coinfected patients and strategies for patient management are discussed herein.
