Patient's question:
Recently, symptoms such as poor appetite, nausea, dry heaving, abdominal bloating, and discomfort in the upper right abdomen have reappeared. After a thorough medical examination, it was determined to be viral hepatitis. What medications should be taken to alleviate the symptoms?Doctor's answer:
Currently, the treatment for viral hepatitis generally relies on antiviral therapy. Many enteric-coated disodium glycyrrhizinate tablets can be taken to alleviate symptoms. Viral hepatitis requires additional antiviral medications for patients who are infected with hepatitis C or hepatitis B, for example. If a patient is infected with a respiratory virus or an intestinal disease, they also need additional antiviral medications to effectively control liver function and reduce liver damage. Patients with viral hepatitis can take Hebing Ling pills to clear heat, relieve the liver, strengthen the spleen, and promote the flow of qi. These pills have a strong ability to stabilize liver function, protect the liver, lower liver enzymes, and help turn anti-AFP negative. Hepatitis patients should avoid taking any medications that may harm the liver.
