Chronic Hepatitis B Guidelines
Chronic Hepatitis B guidelines help healthcare providers manage long-term infection with the hepatitis B virus. They recommend testing and monitoring for liver damage, including blood tests and liver scans. Treatment options like antiviral medications are considered if the virus is active and causing liver harm. The goal is to reduce the risk of liver cirrhosis, cancer, and other complications. Regular follow-up is essential, even if symptoms are absent. Overall, management aims to control the virus, protect liver health, and prevent disease progression.
