Hepsera

Waarvoor het wordt gebruikt

Hepsera is indicated for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B in adults with: compensated liver disease with evidence of active viral replication, persistently elevated serum-alanine-aminotransferase (ALT) levels and histological evidence of active liver inflammation and fibrosis. Initiation of Hepsera treatment should only be considered when the use of an alternative antiviral agent with a higher genetic barrier to resistance is not available or appropriate (see section 5.1); decompensated liver disease in combination with a second agent without cross-resistance to Hepsera.
