No, it just prevents it before infection. If a person has a Hepatitis B infection there are other medications that are sometimes given.

Is hepatitis curable or preventable?

Hepatitis refers to a condition in which the liver is inflamed, it can be causes by a number of different factors, including viruses. There are several hepatitis viruses, each one is distinct. Hepatitis A is vaccine preventable; it is a short-term (acute) infection and there is no cure. Hepatitis B is also vaccine preventable; it can be a short-term (acute) infection, but in cases where the immune system fails to fight off the initial infection it can become a long-term (chronic) infection. Chronic hepatitis B is not curable, but there are treatments available that can help manage viral progression and damage. Hepatitis C is NOT vaccine preventable; in some cases the immune system will fight off the initial infection, but most adults who are exposed to the hepatitis C virus will develop the chronic infection. While there is no vaccine for hepatitis C, there are medications that can get rid of the virus. Hepatitis D only occurs in combination with hepatitis B, therefore the vaccine for hepatitis B is also effective against hepatitis D.

Is hepatitis B incurable?

This is really unbelievable, I just got tested negative to HEPATITIS B after a long time of suffering. I experienced dark urine and ribs pain and then I went to the hospital for treatment and I was told its hepatitis b that it has no cure, although I was given some drugs to slowdown the viral load but it later got worse hence my body was getting weaker. My friend helped me locate Dr. Iyabiye while looking for possible solution online. I contacted him and the pains gone after taken his medicine, I went back to the hospital for a test and I was tested negative. This is real wonderful, here is the Dr. contact: iyabiyehealinghome @ gmail . com phone +234-815-857-7300
