Below is my experience with Interferron teraphy,
At 1st injection, Doctor asked me to stay at hospital for 24 hrs to see the effect, but everything felt normal. Same thing happen with 2nd injection.
After 3rd injection, started feel flu symptons , dry mouth (thirsty), less taste for food (my portion still normal) but still feel strong
After 4th injection, feel headache, sleepy/weak, less taste for food  and itching. But I still can riding bicycle for exercise.
After 10th injection, sometime light headache, dry mouth,  itching , less taste for food  but feel little stronger.

Lipanthyl 100 - 1x3days

stop this, abnormal chol was due to hbv not by foods or your genes, you wont have any chol problems after hbv is cleared
simvastatin is used in this case against hbv, not for cholesterol itself

Becefort Multivitamin- 1x1day
check if vitamins are synthetic or extracted from food, 99% of vitamins in the market are synthetic.there are no proofs synthetic vitmins work but you can take anyway.
take also foods and vegetables in your diet

curliv plus
this is not ok because it contains antioxidants like curcuma and sylimarin antinflammatories which  reduce immune response while on interferon.to boost immune response and lower oxidative stress it is best to use liposomal or injection vitamin c and glutathione but only liposomal or injection because the normal forms in pills you find at pharmacies are not absorbed at all.in italy vitamin c and glutathione are also found in injectable form if you find them take it.liposomal forms are made by livonlbas but i dont know if there are resellers in your area.http://www.livonlabs.com/
liposomal formula contains PPC already
when you stop interferon and hbv is cleared curliv is very good to calm down inflammation and repair liver but it is not good now because it reduces immune response

curliv plus i found it contains
Sylimarin fitosoma 35 mg, Fructus Schizandrae ext. 135 mg, Curcuma rizoma xanthorrhizae ext. 150 mg, Liquiritiae radix ext. 135 mg, 150 mg di bitartrato di colina, vitamina B6 2 mg.

So, these are I should take. Is it safe to kidney?

all safe among them only interferon n extreme rare cases can make kidneys damage

alinia (generic nizonide500 by lupin india), - 1x 1day
no 4 pills a day with meals every 4-5hrs (at night 8hrs), if tollerable even 5 pills.take bifidus yogurt and increase dose slowly becuase alinia can make mild diarrea which resolves itself in 2-3days.alinia is a diarrea drug but it can also make diarrea killing some bacteria in the gut so taking yogurt you can balance.
absorption can be increased by fish oil, oliv oil, PPCpolyenylphosphatidylcholine

simvastatin possibly 40mg daily, 1x 1day
yes at dinner

vitamin d3 5000-10000iu daily , 1x day
it depends on your serum levels, all hbvers are deficent but when hbv is getting cleared the levels rise without supplements.to boost immune system you need levels 50-90ng/ml so start with 5000iu and then make the test as soon as possible to know where you are, serum test is called vitd25oh, check also serum calcium which is also correlated to immune system activation

to rise the levels takes years so don t worry about taking 5000iu daily

Hepatitis B: predictors and endpoints revisited?

as you can see you beated all data in here, your hbvdna baseline was 5log and your hbsg was 2 log.i belive 2 things made response faster:
use of simvastatin (others should confirm this)
low baseline hbsag
