Possible side effect: The drugs you mentioned may cause changes in taste, specifically ribavirin, not to mention affecting appetite and nausea, but the goals of treatment and the limited duration may make it worth enduring some side effects. Talk to your prescribers about your symptoms and making sure no other conditions are involved on the side.
