The probability of hepatitis C antibody turning negative is relatively small and may be positive for a long time or even for life.
If the organism is infected or has been infected with hepatitis C virus, hepatitis C antibody can appear in the body, which usually lasts for a long time or even for life.
If hepatitis C antibody is positive, it is often necessary to carry out further examination of hepatitis C virus RNA and liver function, etc. If the result of hepatitis C virus RNA examination is negative, it generally suggests that the hepatitis C virus has been cleared, and at this time, hepatitis C antibody positivity does not have much effect on the organism.
If the result of hepatitis C virus RNA test is positive, it means that hepatitis C virus still exists in the body, and it is necessary to take treatment in time. At present, it is mainly to take oral antiviral drugs under the guidance of physician, such as the combination of sofosbuvir and viplatasvir and so on, and it is also possible to take hepatoprotecting drugs, such as bupropion, to protect the liver.
Hepatitis C antibody positive suggests timely medical treatment, a comprehensive examination, under the guidance of the physician to actively cooperate with the treatment, to achieve clinical cure. Drugs should be used under the guidance of a professional physician, and should not be used arbitrarily on their own.
