摘要: Summary. Ribavirin in combination with interferon alpha-2 or pegylated is the standard treatment for chronic hepatitis C. The current dosage recommendations ribavirin are based on body weight (bw). mainly eliminated by kidneys and we have recently shown that plasma concentrations determined primarily renal function. It therefore reasonable to hypothesize side-effects of ribavirin, i.e. anaemia, should be more closely related than dose per kg bw. A total 108 consecutive patients eligible C were studied. measured high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-UV after solid-phase extraction trough samples taken 4, 8 12 weeks commenced. 213 obtained change haemoglobin level creatinine concentration was addition ribavirin. bw did not correlate drop induced non-linearly as revealed fitting a Hill equation type dose–response curve. half maximal at 4.4 μm. results from this study suggest anaemia depends This lends further support idea dosed according
