Unfortunately there is no 'approved alternative treatment'.

My guess would be that the reason for this is that alternative treatments do not eradicate the virus. The only treatment which works at this time is the conventional treatment with interferon and ribavirin. New drugs are being developed with the hope that in the future one will be able to treat without the interferon shots.

I recommend asking your doctor or liver specialist. Surprisingly liver specialists are aware of some alternatives that have been proven to help or not halp at all.
