Same as above.I started Prozac I take percocet for R.A.& I take 1 xanax at night for sleep.I can't believe this won't hurt my liver.I have to take these drugs for a good quality of life.So what do you all thin?

The patient information leaflet for virtaully every drug in the world says do not take if liver disease present.
The natural conclusion is that no Hep C patient can therefore take any medication of any kind.
As far as I am aware the medications menioned are perfectly safe and you should both stop worrying.

I am on treatment and I take Prozac. It was prescribed to me by my liver doc.  As far as I know it has not interfered with my liver as all my liver tests are coming back normal and I am currently UND.  I couldn't do my treatment without it, I think it's a lifesaver!  

All the best :)

Thanks for your quick response. I'm not really worried or frightened.Just trying to educate myself.

I am over 1 1/2 years post hep c tx and am UND still.  I am now on prozac for the second time in my adult life.  This time around because my husband is dying from Hodgkins Lymphoma and is at the last stages.  
When I was on HepC I also took Prozac, it did not cause (me) and more damage on my liver.  Although, I know that Lexapro is milder on the liver.  I was put on this for awhile when first dealing with my hubby.  I did not like the feeling or lack of feeling on the drug. So, I asked my doctor to put me back on Prozac.  Lexapro may do well for you, you may ask your doctor.  I would guess that it would matter on some people depending on the Grade and Stage your liver is.

Just a thought to give you.  Good Luck
