Chronic viral hepatitis represents a serious health problem also in the beginning of the 21st century. Four drugs for chronic hepatitis B treatment have been approved in the Czech Republic – pegylated interferon alpha-2a, standard interferon alpha, lamivudine and adefovir dipivoxil. Entecavir, has been approved in United States since March, 2005. Treatment with pegylated interferon alpha and ribavirin has been the standard of chronic hepatitis C therapy for about 5 years. It is very probable that this situation will be without changes for some more years.
