I tried hep. b treatment but test shows i still have it. should i leave it alone and just avoid alcohol?

Discuss with Dr.: Chronic hepatitis b is a difficult disease.It is caused by a virus that is often very persistent but you should not give up . You and you dr can come up with a good treatment plan if you try.Yes;please avoid alcohol.

Your call: Chronic Hep B is a long term issue. There are antiviral medications that can help end it but for some, they just limit the damage until your own immune system shuts it down. Alcohol is a toxic agent that is processed through the liver using a common path it uses to remove other toxins. At low levels a normal liver can do this without damage, with Hep B any alcohol intake causes damage.
