How to treat chronic hepatitis B?

Patient's question:

I am 38 years old. Recently, I feel that my liver is very tired. I haven't had much appetite, and at night, I always feel a sharp pain in my stomach. I went to the nearby hospital for a check-up and was told it was liver disease. They advised me to get injections. How should I treat chronic hepatitis B?

Doctor's answer:

The treatment for, if it means completely clearing the hepatitis B virus from the body, is basically impossible. Generally, the treatment involves using antiviral drugs, such as interferon and lamivudine. In addition to using some liver-protecting and enzyme-lowering drugs, the goal is to keep liver function within the normal range as much as possible, reduce the harm of hepatitis B virus to the liver, and allow the hepatitis B virus to coexist peacefully with the human body. This way, it is also possible to live like a normal person.
