Hi Fuad. It will be up to your liver specialist doctor to recommend what to do next. Geno 1's who relapse or are non responders may be able to treat a second time with the new 'triple' treatment which adds a third drug to the RIBA/interferon mix, but you will have to get expert advice on this. Did you stop treatment yourself because of the blood pressure or did your doctors take you off the treatment because of health risk?

Not what you're looking for?
