Can hepatitis B be cured? This is a common question, the questioner often for the following considerations: 1, hope that there can be a complete cure for hepatitis B, in order to relieve the future life, work, social concerns and pressure. 2, there is a special method of treatment, if there is no temporary treatment, anyway, can not be cured, spend more money. 3, the outside world of the many advertisements have claimed that “a few treatments to completely cure Hepatitis B, major and minor triple yang turn negative without recurrence”, as a liver disease treatment of specialized hospitals, doctors can not have a good way? The above point of view reflects the general mentality of a considerable portion of patients with hepatitis B. To answer this kind of question, we must first be clear about the purpose of the treatment of hepatitis B and the expectations, the higher the expectations, the easier it is to be disappointed, which will certainly affect the confidence and mentality of the treatment. Generally speaking, under the current status of medical research, the purpose of hepatitis B treatment should be: 1, as far as possible to avoid or reduce the continuous damage of liver cells, to ensure that liver function is normal. 2, chronic hepatitis B patients should pay more attention to the long-term repeated hepatocellular damage, re-repair, is the basis of liver fibrosis, cirrhosis and even hepatocellular carcinoma, the active treatment of effective control of great significance. 3, the number of hepatitis B viruses in the body and the propagation of the activity of the body is suitable for the treatment of hepatitis B virus. The number and reproduction activity of hepatitis B virus in the body are suitable to affect the important factors of prognosis, which must be controlled by active and effective treatment. Let’s talk about the current situation of hepatitis B treatment. The prognosis of hepatitis B is closely related to the route of infection with hepatitis B virus, age at the time of infection, individual immune status, post-infection body response and means of therapeutic intervention. In general, adults who are infected with hepatitis B virus for the first time and go through the process of acute hepatitis can be completely cured (i.e., liver function is normal, liver structure is not damaged, and hepatitis B virus is cleared) after active and correct treatment. Those who have family history and have been infected by family members since childhood tend to become hepatitis B virus carriers, and the virus is not easy to be cleared in these patients, so the main points of treatment should be put on actively controlling viral replication, avoiding sustained damage to hepatocytes, ensuring normal liver function, and slowing down the progression of structural pathological changes in the liver, etc., and it is not appropriate to seek for a complete cure, or else they will be easily disappointed.
