 HIV and hepatitis C co-infection can pose some additional health risk to a patient so a thoughtful approach to evaluation and management of both infection by an experienced provider is recommended. Many co-infected patients can do well. Treatment for hepatitis C infection is expected to get steadily better over the decades ahead while treatment of HIV infection is already good in most situations if there is access to a range of antiretroviral medications.
