Hi there... not sure if you're looking for a medication (drug) or alternative treatment. I have experience with holistic treatment so here it is. (Sorry if it's not what you're looking for.)
I was very sick in 1991 and diagnosed with Hep C and was sick to the point I couldn't hold down food. The first thing that helped me was fresh made veggie juice (carrots, beets, celery, spinach). I also cleansed my body. In 1998 my blood test came back neg for hep c and has been ever since.
I still get symptoms of virus in my body and now find that a product called "Master's Miracle" helps. (I have only found it to order on the internet.) It doesn't taste like anything so be careful cuz you can take too much. About 1-2 ounces a day is good. But nothing will help if you eat crap cuz junk food stresses out the liver just like alcohol.
Anyway, check out this link. (It's my story.) BTW, when I had my own health center, I met others who also were successful at helping their bodies heal itself of Hep C and also were able to get negative hep c results eventually. Keep the Faith.
