is there a cure to hepa b?

Answer 1

Depends on what type you have this is from Wikipeda:
Hepatitis B virus infection may either be acute (self-limited) or chronic (long-standing). Persons with self-limited infection clear the infection spontaneously within weeks to months.

The greater a person's age at the time of infection, the greater the chance their body will clear the infection. More than 95% of people who become infected as adults or older children will stage a full recovery and develop protective immunity to the virus. However, only 5% of new-borns that acquire the infection from their mother at birth will clear the infection. Of those infected between the age of one to six, 70% will clear the infection. When the infection is not cleared, one becomes a chronic carrier of the virus.

Acute infection with hepatitis B virus is associated with acute viral hepatitis -- an illness that begins with general ill-health, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, bodyaches, mild fever, and then progresses to development of jaundice. The illness lasts for a few weeks and then gradually improves in most of the affected people. A few patients may have more severe liver disease (fulminant hepatic failure), and may die as a result of it. The infection may also be entirely asymptomatic and may go unrecognized.
Chronic infection with hepatitis B virus may be either asymptomatic or may be associated with a chronic inflammation of the liver (chronic hepatitis

Answer 2

HBV is a virus that you can not get rid of. With treatment, some of your symptoms may be alleviated. You may not be sick all of the time, but you will always have the virus and you can spread it to other people through bodily fluids even though you may not feel sick. Yes, this is a self limiting virus, but it will not go away and it will compromise your immune system, which means that you will be more susceptible to other infections. Eventually, you will have to be screened for hepatic (liver) cancer on a regular basis. Your bile ducts may become blocked and you will appear to have jaundice(your skin and the whites of your eyes will have a yellow tint to them). There is a vaccination for HBV. It is a series of three shots. However, post vaccination, you should be tested to make sure that your body made the antibodies because the vaccine does not "take" in all instances and you may have to be vaccinated again. I know this is more than you asked, but I hope it helps!

Answer 3

yes, there is a potential cure. The best thing to do is to prevent it with vaccines.

But, if you have the infection, its too late to get the vaccine.
Depending on your hepatitis B test (if you have hepatitis Be Ag positive or hepatitis BeAg negative disease), the treatments may cure you. If you have hepatitis BeAg positive disease, the treatments available include Pegylated interferon (Pegasys is the brand name), Entecavir, Hepsera and Epivir. To determine which one is best id dependent on your body and if you have other health problems. (ie depression, kidney problems). Also, it depends when you got the disease (at birth or in later in life while doing intravenous drugs or a blood transfusion.) Those who got it at a later time are more likely to cure the hepatitis B than those who got it at birth.

Its best to see a liver doctor (hepatologist) to help figure out which medication is best for your liver disease. Sometimes more blood work or even a liver biospy is needed.
