Dad may have hepatitis B. Apart from medication, what other treatment options are available for hepatitis B?
Hepatitis B treatment can include dietary modifications. Patients should consume protein-rich foods such as milk, eggs, lean meat, and fish to enhance nutritional status. Additionally, hepatoprotective medications like biphenyldicarboxylate may be prescribed under a physician’s guidance. Hepatitis B infection may result from unprotected sexual contact or exposure to personal items (e.g., clothing or utensils) belonging to hepatitis B virus carriers. Therefore, when engaging in sexual activity with individuals diagnosed with hepatitis B, appropriate protective measures—particularly consistent condom use—are essential to prevent transmission and safeguard health.
