This test is ideal if you've been diagnosed with Hepatitis B and need to monitor how well your treatment is working. It helps track the activity of the virus in your body, checks if you're developing immunity, and evaluates how your liver is functioning. Many people use this test regularly to ensure their treatment plan is effective and to catch any liver damage early.
If you're taking biotin supplements (also called vitamin B7, B8, vitamin H, or coenzyme R), you should stop taking them at least 72 hours before your blood draw. High doses of biotin can interfere with some of the tests in this panel and affect the accuracy of your results. No other special preparation is typically required.
This comprehensive panel checks for Hepatitis B surface antigens and antibodies to determine if the virus is active and whether your body has developed immunity. It measures liver enzymes like ALT and AST that indicate liver inflammation or damage, along with bilirubin and other proteins that assess overall liver function. Together, these measurements provide a complete picture of how the virus is affecting your liver and whether treatment is controlling the infection effectively.
What this means
Your Hepatitis B Surface Antigen test came back negative, which means no active Hepatitis B virus was detected in your blood at this time. This is a positive result indicating either successful viral suppression through treatment or that you are not currently infected with active Hepatitis B.
Recommended actions
Continue taking your prescribed antiviral medications as directed if you're on treatment
Maintain regular monitoring appointments to ensure the virus remains suppressed
Avoid alcohol completely to protect your liver and support continued viral control
Schedule your next monitoring test in 3-6 months or as recommended by your doctor
