Patient Case: HCV with Cirrhosis and Hepatic Encephalopathy

On this episode, we are joined by Jessa Mae Sabate and Nichole Arroyo (4th year MUSC PharmD candidates) to discuss a patient case looking into the management of advanced liver disease. We discuss hepatic encephalopathy and treatment options for hepatitis C. We also review the management of cholestatic pruritus, insomnia, and some other behavioral health issues in the patient's history.
