Abstract:Currently,in dialysis patients,chemotherapy or immunosuppressive individuals and drug users with HBV infection,potent and low-resistance nucleos (t) ide analogues are recommended as the first-line treatment,but interferon is not.For dialysis patients,when serum ALT levels and HBV DNA levels need not to accept antiviral therapy,we should consider the effect of dialysis and a liver biopsy should be conducted;For chemotherapy or immunosuppressive individuals,we should closely monitor HBV markers before,during and after treatment;For drug users with HBV infection,the possibility of druginduced liver damage need to be excluded for initiation of antiviral therapy.
