Her SGPT value is 2863U/L, SGOT value is 1952U/L, bilirubin value is 5.4 mg/dl . She is having hepatitis E . Can you please tell me the possible treatment for this disease. Is hepatitis E curable?
Vaccines against HEV are in development [95-99]. Two large placebo-controlled trials found that vaccination was more than 96 percent effective in preventing infection in high-risk settings Little information exists regarding the efficacy of pre- or post-exposure immune globulin (IG) prophylaxis for the prevention of HEV. There is at present no proof that immune globulin, including lots produced in countries where HEV is endemic, confers protection against hepatitis Travelers to endemic areas should engage in practices that may prevent infection, such as avoiding Chat Doctor. Treatment of infection remains supportive. Case reports have suggested a benefit from Riboviria, suggesting it might be an option for chronic HEV infection, but more data are needed
