Histroy Of Hepatitis B Cured. Moderate Beer Drinking Safe?
hello Doctor, weight: 75kgs. Height: 5.8. Had jaundice (Hepatitis B) one and half years back. After treatment doctor said that I was completely cured. Now, in the recent 3 months I have attended 3 parties in which i took beers (2 at each party). But regularly I am taking fresh juices without ice and less sugar and drinking lots of water. No oily stuffs too. Regular gym guy too. My question is, I have one more important party ahead and can I have 2 beers for that? After that I will quit boozing completely. I am serious. Please answer Doctor.
Hi and welcome to HCM,
This is not something serious and this is almost negligible amount of alcohol. This shouldnt cause any problems. YOu can take those 2 beers of course but not more. ALso, you can have 1-2 beers per week . I suggest to do liver enymes frequently every 6months to evaluate is there liver damage. If your findings are normal you can drink reasonably. WIsh you good health.
