Hepatitis B is a potentially life-threatening liver infection caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). This disease is most commonly spread by exposure to infected bodily fluids and is a major global health problem. It can cause chronic infection and puts people at high risk of death from cirrhosis and liver cancer. Symptoms are variable and include yellowing of the eyes, abdominal pain and dark urine. In chronic cases, liver failure, cancer or scarring can occur.

Homeopathy is useful as a preventative and also as a curative treatment for hepatitis. It has been evidenced that homeopathic medicines for hepatitis not only reduce the period, or duration of the illness, but also possible complications.
