Details
Hep-C medication is some of the most expensive.
We now have over 100 people on Hep-C medication, with a further 1600 on the waiting list at Mortimer Market. While only one course of treatment is available the Bloomsbury Network decided that it was necessary to educate our patients on how NOT to get re-infected.
The evening is designed for people about to start medication, on medication or during follow-up.
The medication is extremely successful but does not give you immunity – you can get infected again! However…. NHS England will not provide a second course of treatment.
- Learn what you can do to protect yourself from re-infection
- Learn what support is out there for you.
Speakers will include Dr Laura Waters, Dr Indrajit Ghosh, Dr Herman Van Der Wal
Refreshments provided.
