A member asked:
Hi doc, i was just diagnosed with inactive chronic hep b. 36, in shape, all blood work perfect. . i have not symptoms. can i still drink on occasion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unfortunately not: Even with inactive hepatitis we would still recommend to not do anything that can cause additional injury to your liver. Even if it's occasionally the GI community would advise to avoid alcohol.
