My mother, aged 58, is on HCV treatment for last 2 weeks. She started to have low BP. How to manage low BP during treatment?

She may need to reduce the dose of the Ribavirin, but this MUST be discussed with her consultant first. If she gets dizzy or breathless then she should rest.

Not heard of Titaferon before, did you mean Interferon?
