Sweating bad for Hep C treatment?
I recently started Harvoni a few weeks ago and I have stayed with my regular Weight lifting regimen but I am worried about doing cardio for fear of sweating out the Harvoni and that impacting my hopefully good results in a few weeks.Would anyone be able to help me out with this question?
Harvoni leaves the body through urine and feces not perspiration
Keep up your normal life unless that includes alcohol. I would avoid any supplements while on treatment as well.

Thanks for the answers everyone.As far as I know my blood pressure has always been in the norm but I will definitely check that out.Good to know that I can resume with Cardio.Hopefully in a few weeks I will be posting good news.
It would have helped if I read your entire post. But I also did cardio (treadmill moderate to quick pace) for a half hour per day...
You're not going to sweat out the meds...

I lifted fairly heavy throughout the duration of 12 weeks on Harvoni and it din't have any negative effect on the outcome. SVR12
One word of caution, Harvoni has been known to raise blood pressure in some people, me being one of them. As you're probably aware, lifting does spike your BP and if it's high already, you may get to the danger zone.
Good luck.
