Introduction: Data on the epidemiology of hepatitis C among individuals who use drugs in low-threshold settings are lacking, although crucial to assess the burden of disease and aid in the design of treatment strategies.
Objective: The aim of this study was to characterize the epidemiology and disease related to hepatitis C in a population attending a low-threshold methadone program.
Materials And Methods: A cross-sectional study in the population attending the Mobile Low-Threshold Methadone Program in Lisbon, Portugal, was carried out.
