Patient's question:
I feel like my heart is not right either, my heartbeat is very fast. We had a thorough check-up at our city hospital, and the liver function tests were normal, but the transaminase levels were high. I am taking liver-protecting medication, which was apparently a tablet called "Liver Protection Lead," and I can't remember anything else, but it's definitely a liver-protecting medicine. Its effectiveness is not obvious. What kind of medicine is there for treating liver diseases?Doctor's answer:
Currently, the latest clinical diagnostic guidelines believe: Tenofovir is still recommended as a first-line drug for the treatment of hepatitis B virus, while it has been converted to a third-line drug. PEG-IFNα remains recommended as a treatment option for patients with chronic hepatitis B without cirrhosis. The update of first-line and third-line antiviral drugs can be said to be the biggest change in the new guidelines. When the 2007 version of the guidelines was released, the United States had approved 6 drugs for the treatment of adult chronic hepatitis B. After that, two randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trials were conducted to carefully observe the efficacy of Tenofovir and ester in treating patients with chronic hepatitis B. The results showed that TDF has a stronger inhibitory effect on hepatitis B virus than ADV, with a low resistance rate and good safety.
