Hi William, that is worrying, I agree.  But this warning from Abbvie is only that, a warning of a potential risk for people with advanced cirrhosis, and a direction that those people need to be monitored more carefully while on these treatment drugs for any adverse indications of a worsening of their condition. 

Abbvie`s `Viekirax` (Viekira Pak)  has only been approved for use in the UK earlier this month, but any consultant treating people for Hep C should be aware of any side effects and possible risk factors with this or any other therapy. 

Hope you`re doing ok.     Jill.

Hi William,

I think this is what you`re referring to, it was posted by Tig56 recently, in our news section.
