“…It seems reasonable to assume that corticosteroids used to treat IBD have no detrimental effect on the course of HCV. 16 However, one patient with CD had an acute flare of HCV infection on discontinuing corticosteroids. 42 Furthermore, available data on recurrence in the graft after liver transplantation suggest that corticosteroids should be tapered slowly to limit the risk of early recurrent HCV hepatitis and the risk of cholestatic fibrosing hepatitis.…”

“…1 However, no consensus has been reached for HCV screening prior to starting immunomodulators. 16 As the risk of HCV reactivation under immunosuppressive drugs appears to be very low or non-existent (see below), systematic screening of IBD patients cannot be definitively recommended. Effect of immunosuppressants on HBV infection Reactivation of HBV is an important concern for patients taking immunosuppressants and can manifest in many ways, from a subtle change in serum aminotransferase levels to fulminant hepatic failure and death.…”

“…Com o advento dos imunomoduladores, cujo principal representante é a AZA, e da terapia bioló-gica, representada principalmente pelo infliximabe (anti-TnFα 75% humano) e mais recentemente pelo adalimumabe (anti-TnFα 100% humano), conseguiuse melhor controle das doenças imunomediadas, notadamente a DC 1,4,7,8 . Por conta do efeito imunossupressor, antes do início do uso de imunomoduladores ou de agentes biológicos, devem ser descartadas doenças infecciosas ativas ou latentes, tais como: viroses, micoses profundas e TB.…”
