Chronic hepatitis C therapy using Directly Acting Antivirals (DAA) has high efficacy (till 100 %), minimum contra-indications and extraordinarilyfavorable safety profile. Primarily, it is necessary to pay attention to drug-drug interactions. However they are well documented and successfullyresolvable already in general clinical practice. Current possibilities of interferon-free therapy represent combinations of sofosbuvir withother DAA or with ribavirin and combination of paritaprevir boosted by ritonavir + ombitasvir ± dasabuvir. Fixed combinaton of elbasvir andgrazoprevir is already available in some countries of the world.
