Hello! With the question "what test results need to take anti-hepatitis B virus?" The doctor would like to answer as follows:
Indication of treatment when ALT increases more than 2 times the normal value or there is confirmed evidence of advanced liver fibrosis/cirrhosis regardless of ALT level and HBV DNA ≥ 104 copies /ml (2,000 IU/ml) if HBeAg (-). Compared with your results, there is no evidence of cirrhosis and are not eligible for hepatitis B antiviral drugs.
