Hello,
Thank you for your query.

Livolin forte has proven to show beneficial effects on the liver.
It does treat an infection but helps the liver to recover from the damage due to the hepatitis B (HB) virus.
The treatment for HB, depends on the load of the virus and its current activity level. There are antivirals, and other agents that help to control the Infection and even stop disease progression.
You clinical status and liver parameters will help your doctor decide what is best for you.

Liv 52 is a herbal preparation that helps to protect the liver. Please consult your treating doctor before you take this or any medications/supplements.

I recommend :
-nutritious diet and adequate water intake.
-avoid fatty food, alcohol, smoking
- avoid diet rich in saturated fats.
-Include whole fresh fruits and vegetables.
-avoid processed foods and refined grains and stick to whole grains and home made food

Please not HB is sexually transmitted and your partner/family need to be tested as well. It can also be transmitted through blood transfusions and needle sharing (in case of intravenous drug users).

Hope this helps.
Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.
Wish you good health
