5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to verify the effectiveness and safety of medical ozone therapy system in treatment of chronic hepatitis B.
Detailed Description
Total of 189 patients with compensated chronic hepatitis B will be divided equally and randomly into three arms. Patients in arm I and II treated with medical ozone therapy with different medical ozone generators, one was made in Tianyi medical instruments limited company and the other in Germany. Sixty-three patients of arm III treated with Diammonium glycyrrhizinate Capsules, common used liver protective herb drug. The term of therapy is 12 weeks. Virology response, biochemistry response and hepatitis B viral serological response will be studied at the end of 12 weeks treatment.
