Psychological preparation necessary for hepatitis B antiviral treatment

One Hepatitis B patient initially chose interferon therapy, and just after a month of using it, she couldn’t hold out. “The injections are too much trouble, let’s switch to oral medication!” So he chose lamivudine. Taking medication is really convenient, just take 1 tablet a day, and the effect is also very good, just after three months of treatment, HBV DNA is undetectable, and liver function is back to normal. He thought he had been completely cured and stopped the treatment. A few months later, the symptoms of hepatitis reappeared. The disease rebounded to pre-treatment levels and he had to take the medication again. This is because the patient took the March HBV DNA turn negative is only a temporary suppression of part of the virus, to achieve antiviral efficacy must be long-term suppression of the virus, the most important thing is to do the “two insist”, the patient to adhere to long-term treatment, adhere to the regular follow-up in the hospital; the doctor to adhere to the patient’s confidence, and adhere to the patient’s correct guidance! The doctor should insist on giving the patient confidence and correct instructions. General triple positive, DNA-positive chronic hepatitis B patients, antiviral treatment should be transferred to small triple positive, DNA-negative, normal liver function to maintain a year, the higher the fourth the better, more than 20 units when the drug is discontinued when the efficacy is more stable. The basic course of antiviral treatment for chronic hepatitis B patients with small triple positive DNA is three years. Benefits of antiviral treatment: 1. Suppressing the virus and reducing its spread; 2. Controlling the disease and its recurrence; 3. Preventing the occurrence of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. 4. 4. Reduce the cost of hospitalization and treatment and improve the quality of life. Hepatitis B patients to accept the characteristics of the treatment of this disease, and her harmonious coexistence, perhaps because you have this disease, and can pay more attention to health earlier, that you get other diseases of the possibility of much lower, and anti-hepatitis B currently have enough drugs to inhibit it, the year before last, scientists around the world have launched a ten-year research on all aspects of hepatitis, I believe that after ten years of hepatitis B treatment will have a big breakthrough, and the treatment of hepatitis B, and the treatment of liver cancer. Let’s work together – two perseverance, the sun always shines after the storm!
