Hepatitis B

Hepatitis means inflammation of the liver. The liver helps the body process nutrients, filter the blood, and fight infections. When the liver is damaged, its function can be affected. Heavy alcohol use, some medications, and certain illnesses can cause hepatitis. However, hepatitis is often caused by a virus.

Hepatitis B is a vaccine-preventable liver infection caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). Hepatitis B is spread when blood, semen, or other body fluids from a person infected with the virus enters the body of someone who is not infected. The best way to prevent hepatitis B is to get vaccinated. All adults aged 18-59 should receive the vaccine.
