It affects approximately 71 million people around the world and has caused the death of more than 400,000 carriers per year due to complications from the infection, including hepatic cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.1,2 HCV belongs to the family Flaviviridae and has a single-stranded RNA genome with approximately 9.6kb in length that encodes a polyprotein of around 3000 amino acid residues, which, in turn, is subsequently cleaved to form structural and nonstructural viral proteins.3 HCV viral RNA polymerase has a high error propensity during successive replications, resulting in high nucleotide substitution rates in the RNA chains of the viral particles produced and, consequently, in wide genotypic variability

A 50mg vial with 5mL yields 10mg/mL a 5mg dose requires 0.5mL (50 units), easier to measure accurately than 0.2mL at 25mg/mL concentration
Microbial metabolites such as hydrogen sulfide, predominantly generated by sulfate-reducing species, including Desulfovibrio and Bilophila wadsworthia , and D-lactate produced by overgrown Lactobacillus and Streptococcus spp., further amplify oxidative stress and fibroblast activation, perpetuating a self-reinforcing triad of fibrosis, dysmotility, and bacterial proliferation [17,18]
