O tratamento da hepatite viral C crônica é complexo, envolvendo a aplicação semanal de alfapeginterferon, doses diárias de ribavirina, realização de exames laboratoriais periódicos para monitorização da terapêutica, elevada incidência de efeitos adversos e tempo prolongado de tratamento. O presente estudo objetivou descrever as oportunidades de intervenção farmacêutica no tratamento de pacientes com hepatite viral C crônica. Os dados referentes ao tratamento de pacientes com a hepatite viral C crônica, no município de Itajaí/SC, foram coletados por meio de um estudo transversal. A estruturação do serviço de assistência a estes pacientes foi analisada por meio de um estudo descritivo, e a evolução do tratamento farmacológico por intermédio de um estudo de acompanhamento farmacoterapêutico. Os resultados evidenciaram fatores relacionados ao paciente e à terapêutica, não observados em estudos anteriores. A incidência de efeitos adversos foi considerada a principal causa de redução de doses ou de interrupção do tratamento, sendo esta última por abandono do próprio paciente ou por intervenção médica. Desta maneira, constatou-se que o papel do farmacêutico como prestador de cuidados em saúde deve estar orientado na educação dos pacientes e no acompanhamento do processo logístico, além da prevenção e do manejo de efeitos adversos durante o tratamento. / Infection by hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an important public health problem.
