From here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essentiale, there is no mention that Essentiale treats viral Hep B.
Not sure.

thanks for the info.
I was an Overseas Filipino Worker and I'm planning to go back to Dubai to work. But I cannot go back with my present condition, a medical test is required, is there a change for me to get well? what are the chances?
Answer: There is no quick cure even though some do become cured.
Right, it looks like you have chronic Hep B. 75% people lead a normal life just like everyone else, the rest 25% need some treatment. Everyone needs to monitor the liver regular and be liver friendly.
These simple measures will help keep you healthy longer:
* Avoid drinking alcohol. Alcohol speeds the progression of liver disease.
* Avoid medications that may cause liver damage. Your doctor can advise you about these medications, which may include over-the-counter (OTC) medications as well as prescription drugs. It's especially important to avoid using acetaminophen (Tylenol, others), which can cause liver damage even in healthy people.
* Eat the healthiest diet you can. Eat fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains and lean protein. Healthy foods help keep you strong, give you more energy and support your immune system. If you're nauseated, try eating small meals throughout the day. Choose foods that are soothing and easy to digest, such as soups, broths or a plain baked potato. A registered dietitian can be especially helpful if you have weight loss or trouble eating.
* Get regular exercise. Exercise helps increase your strength and energy levels.
* Get enough sleep. Rest when you need to.
