Hi
There are different types of hepatitis. With this brief history, I can't comment regarding which type are you suffering from. Liver aid can help you a bit. Acetaminophen must be stopped as it's overuse can cause liver injury. If you are using it for longer time, it can be one of the reasons of your hepatitis.
Feel free to contact again with your reports.
Take care
