How is viral hepatitis B cirrhosis treated?

Patient's question:

The various indicators have not shown improvement, only a significant reduction in viral load. We have been using Tenofovir, which is currently ongoing. It is said that it needs to be taken for a year. The four closed injections were done using Oxytocin and another drug for the closed injections, except for one traditional Chinese medicine whose composition is unknown.

Doctor's answer:

Hepatitis B spreads to fibrosis/cirrhosis mainly due to the presence of the virus. The virus causes damage to liver cells, leading to the gradual development of fibrosis/cirrhosis of the liver. Therefore, antiviral treatment is crucial during treatment. Interferon is not very effective; lamivudine is a viable option. Protecting liver cells with drugs like S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe) and vitamin E, as well as anti-inflammatory treatments, can also be beneficial. Stimulating liver cell regeneration with growth factors can help. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and herbal remedies offer significant advantages in treatment. If the condition progresses, a liver transplant may eventually be necessary.
The daily treatment for liver disease patients primarily involves medication. Patients can take various oral medications, complemented by multiple vitamins, while paying attention to their diet—eating light, soft, and easily digestible foods. We hope that liver disease patients can recover as soon as possible!
