Take Control of Your Hepatitis B Treatment Journey
When Hepatitis B treatment isn’t working as expected, it can feel like you’re fighting an invisible battle. The frustration of trying medication after medication without success is overwhelming. Our advanced Hepatitis B Genotyping and Drug Resistance Test provides the clarity you and your doctor need to break through treatment barriers and find the right path forward.
Understanding Your Hepatitis B Test
This isn’t just another blood test – it’s a sophisticated analysis that looks deep into your Hepatitis B virus to understand exactly what’s happening. The test identifies which specific genotype of Hepatitis B you have (there are 8 different types that respond differently to treatment) and crucially, detects whether your virus has developed drug resistance to the medications you’re taking.
Using advanced Quantitative PCR technology, we measure the amount of virus in your blood while simultaneously checking for genetic mutations that make the virus resistant to common treatments like entecavir, tenofovir, and lamivudine.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is essential if you’re experiencing any of these situations:
- Treatment isn’t working – Your viral load remains high despite medication
- Switching medications – Planning to change or adjust your treatment plan
- Previous treatment failure – You’ve tried multiple Hepatitis B medications without success
- Planning pregnancy – Ensuring optimal treatment during family planning
- Unexplained liver enzyme changes – ALT/AST levels fluctuating unexpectedly
If you’re feeling frustrated with your current Hepatitis B management, this test provides the answers you need.
Why This Matters for Your Health
Getting the right treatment for Hepatitis B can transform your quality of life and protect your liver from long-term damage. This test helps you:
- Avoid ineffective treatments – Stop wasting time on medications that won’t work for your specific virus
- Prevent liver damage – Effective treatment reduces inflammation and scarring
- Reduce medication side effects – Only take what’s necessary and effective
- Gain peace of mind – Know exactly what you’re dealing with and have a clear treatment path
- Save money long-term – Avoid costly treatments that don’t work
