I am only on my 4th treatment, but so far i dont really have no complaints about it. The side effects for me have been very easy, nothing serious to complain about.

First round not effective. Second round with riboviren is showing results of killing the virus. However, I am just nine weeks into treatment.

Comment:
I was not always thrilled (But who would be). However of the three times I was treated for Hepatitis C, I found this last time using the Pegasys, and Rebatrol, was the easiest.
