Introduction<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hepatitis C is a liver infection caused by HCV (hepatitis C virus). In a few cases, the virus also attacks the digestive system, nervous system, or immunity issues. The disease turns out to be deadly when it advances to cirrhosis or liver cancer. But these life-threatening situations due to HCV is rare. There are five stages of hepatitis C:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u00a0Incubation period:<\/strong>This is the period between the first exposure to the virus to the start of the infection. It would last for 14 to 80 days, 45 days on average.<\/li>\n
  2. \u00a0Acute hepatitis C:<\/strong>This is the starting stage of the infection. It lasts for up to six months. The virus either leaves the body on its own, or the patient would get treated.<\/li>\n
  3. \u00a0Chronic hepatitis C:<\/strong>The later stage, which lasts for more than six months, is the chronic stage. At this period, the virus can damage the liver and cause other serious illnesses like liver cancer or cirrhosis.<\/li>\n
  4. \u00a0Cirrhosis:<\/strong>This is a serious liver disease that kills healthy liver cells and leaves scar tissues. This stage is attained after 20-30 years of exposure or earlier if the person consumes alcohol or is HIV positive. Cirrhosis is an inflammation in the liver that can lead to a lot of suffering.<\/li>\n
  5. \u00a0Liver cancer:<\/strong>Cirrhosis mostly leads to liver cancer. Liver cancer does not show any symptoms, but the doctors ensure that a cirrhosis patient is tested regularly for cancer.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Transmission and Symptoms of Hepatitis C<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The virus is spread through bodily fluids or blood.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. The virus spreads through sharing needles or razors.<\/li>\n
    2. The virus enters the body through sexual contact with an infected person.<\/li>\n
    3. Mother to child.<\/li>\n
    4. Sharing personal items like razors, nail clippers, toothbrushes.<\/li>\n
    5. Tattoo or piercings with unhygienic equipment.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      However, breastfeeding, sneezing, kissing, mosquito bites, or sharing utensils does not spread the virus.<\/p>\n

      The symptoms of hepatitis C<\/strong> are:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Gallstones<\/li>\n
      2. Severe itching<\/li>\n
      3. Muscle loss<\/li>\n
      4. Memory and concentration issues (encephalopathy)<\/li>\n
      5. Blood vomiting<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Ledihep Tablets<\/strong><\/p>\n

        Ledihep is an integration of two antiviral medicines. Ledihep<\/strong><\/a> is used for treating HCV. The tablets are prescribed when the patient is in the chronic stage. The medicine helps in reducing the hepatitis C virus and stop the spread of infection. The medicine helps the patient recover faster by controlling the spread of the virus.<\/p>\n

        There are negligible side effects of the tablet, such as tiredness and headaches. Doctors suggest the patient consumes plenty of fluids and a healthy diet to prevent or reduce the side effects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
