Hi thanks for asking question.
Your age is just 20 year...
You have not mentioned full history with report....

If you have acute hepatitis then no role for antiviral drug....
Mostly you will have chronc hepatitis in active stage with positive HBV DNA ...and HBeag...

So here you are given this drug...
The drug useful in suppresing viral multiplication ....But it is not like you will 100% free from virus...
Chronic hepatitis b can remain life long.

Take care with taking less fatty food...
Spinach , carrot juice useful....
Fruits taken more....

Do follow up reports after few month.
This drug taken for six month to one year.

Take care.
