Is a negative hepatitis B surface antigen normal?

Patient's question:

HBsAg negative, ALT 169, AST 87 - is this normal?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, hepatitis B can be ruled out, but there are some abnormalities in liver function. It is recommended to pay attention to rest regularly, and it is best to quit smoking and drinking. Of course, it is also recommended to have a follow-up examination after a period of time. If it is still abnormal, it is suggested that you can take some liver-protecting drugs orally, such as Essentiale, etc. It is hoped that the explanation will be helpful to you. Hepatitis B brings very great harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly, and at the same time, pay more attention to self-care, eat more fruits and vegetables, and avoid stimulating foods. It is hoped that hepatitis B patients can receive professional treatment.
