How Does It Work?

Ribavirin is an antiviral medicine that interferes with the replication of the hepatitis C virus. It is used in combination with other antiviral medicines because it enhances their effectiveness in eliminating the virus. Together, these medicines reduce the viral load and help achieve a sustained virologic response (cure) in many patients.
