Abstract: A method and system for treating Hepatitis C includes using an implantable pump and an outlet catheter. A proximal end of the outlet catheter is fluidly connected to an outlet port of the pump. A distal end of the outlet catheter is sized to deliver medication from the pump to a liver of living organism, preferably a human being. By delivering medication directly to the liver the effects of the antiviral therapeutics are enhanced, and the impact of Hepatitis C infection is reduced.
