摘要：
Assessment and uptake of hepatitis C treatment among injection drug users with HCV infection remains low, partly due to concerns regarding poor adherence and response to therapy. Findings from a large, prospective study demonstrate comparable adherence and response to hepatitis C treatment among nondrug users, former drug users and active drug users.
