Interferon is a treatment for Hep C\n\nThe combination of Ribavirin and Peg-intron "a form of Interferon" has a high success rate with Hep C.

But with a successful treatment Hep C will not harm your liver.\n\n\nSCH 503034 is in the testing stages.

Viral illnesses CANNOT  be treated with antibiotics.  Usually viruses need to just run their course and just treat the symptoms, although there are few viruses that do have anti-viral meds. Bacterial illnesses CAN be treated quite effectively with antibiotics.

Sorry to say but you cannot cure a cold.  It is a virus and there are almost no viruses that can be killed by medication.  Bacteria can be killed, but not a virus.  So, just make the symptoms as bearable as possible and wait.  It will be over in a few days.
