In april of 2005 I under went interferon/ributol? treatment for a year and the hep c has been in remmision for 2 years now. I used to enjoy bodybuilding and have recently started gettin back into it. I have done  some researching, but need more info. A doctors opinon.( hint hint) on the effects of a low dosage of sustanon 250. like i said i have done a little researching on this matter and my local doctor says ,after my recent physical I was in perfect health and do not consume alcohol and wondered if it was safe for me?

Sustanon is a compound of various forms of testosterone.  I cannot be sure whether there would be any side effects in your case without examination.  

However, I am not aware of hepatitis being a contraindication to this medication.  If there is concern, checking the liver enzymes on a serial basis can be done to ensure no further liver damage.  

Followup with your personal physician is essential.
