Hello, there are. Several treatment options available for treating hepatitis C. several oral interferon free regimens are available. The treatment will bee decided on the genotype of hepatitis C and the extent of existing liver damage. The recovery of liver will depend on the extent of liver damage and grade of Cirrhosis (if present)regards Chat Doctor.
