Summary

This study looked at whether giving vitamin D supplements to people with chronic hepatitis C (genotypes 1 or 4) who had not responded to earlier treatment could improve the effectiveness of a standard antiviral therapy. 32 adults with low vitamin D levels received vitamin D alongside pegylated interferon and ribavirin. The main goal was to see if the virus became undetectable after 12 weeks of treatment.
