Abstract

Rafael Gonçalves de Azevedo and Shirley Vasconcelos Komninakis

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Infections are considered public health problems. The coinfection HIV/HCV is common in individuals exposed to parenteral exposure, and HVC has emerged as the leading cause of deaths among HIV-1-seropositive patients. The treatment of HIV/HCV coinfected people should be able to suppress viral replication for both viruses, with the purpose of to improve the immunological response and include liver damage. These two aspects should be associated with a high safety profile, because the toxicity of antiretroviral drugs used to treat HIV in HIV/HCV coinfected people, can lead them to death. The management of the treatment of patients is needed to monitor and, if possible, prevent complications related to adverse effects.
