Guest guest Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 I have FINALLY recieved my prescription for pegatron and ribavirin after approx. 1 1/2 years of tests etc... I am going to start them this Sunday. I have a minor concern regarding other supplements I am taking. I have high cholestorol and I can't take any statins for the obvious reason. So, I picked up this supplement that has sterol/phytosterols, containing vegetable Sterol Esters (650mg, primarily extracted from soybean oil). My question is, does anybody know if this is alright to take with the meds or, the fact that I have Hep C? Does this act like a statin as well? Also, are there any other supplements that I can/should be taking other than Milkthistle? I also got the results of my liver Biopsy and my fibrosis level is stage 3 of 4, and I'm a gemotype 1. My viral level is in the 300's possibly higher now. I am just glad that I can finally start treatment. I thank you in advance for any help. Hope all is well with everyone.
