summary

Before that, I found that my appetite was not very good during this period of time. I saw that I had no appetite at all, and my face was very ugly and yellow. My friends laughed at me, and I was really scared. Today, let me talk with you about whether hepatitis A can be cured.

Can hepatitis A be cured

First, there are many kinds of drugs for hepatitis A. It is estimated that there are more than 700 kinds of drugs for the treatment of hepatitis A (including liver protection drugs, antiviral drugs and drugs for regulating immune function) in China. In the treatment of protecting liver function and preventing further necrosis of liver cells, the progress is relatively significant.

Second, for example, the mortality of severe hepatitis A was as high as 80% in the 1960s and 1970s, and it has dropped to about 43% in the 1980s and 1990s, which indicates that the measures to prevent hepatocyte necrosis and promote hepatocyte regeneration have made great progress, but there is no specific drug to cure hepatitis a up to now.

Third: acute hepatitis a generally does not need antiviral treatment. Only in acute hepatitis C, early use of interferon is recommended to prevent chronic hepatitis, while chronic hepatitis A needs antiviral treatment. Interferon: recombinant DNA leukocyte interferon (IFN - α) can inhibit HBV replication. Intramuscular injection every other day for 6 months, only 30% - 53% of the patients achieved more lasting effect. Interferon is the first choice for hepatitis C, which can be combined with ribavirin. One of the synthetic drugs is deoxycytidine.

matters needing attention

I also want to emphasize: hepatitis a must be detected and treated early, so as not to cause large-scale infection and irreparable consequences. Many people suffer from this disease, and the virus will be discharged from the body with body fluids or sweat, and this virus is very dangerous.
