Medical examinations to be done

Before starting a treatment with our natural antivirals, it is necessary to establish a diagnosis, to evaluate the extension of the disease, its evolution and the response to the treatment.

Diseases	Medical exams	Normal values
Hepatitis A	Transaminase	SGPT “ALAT” ulb-ibc.be M: < 40 U/L W: < 39 U/L SGOT “ASAT” M: < 40 U/L W: < 35U/L
	Hepatic check
Hepatitis B	Transaminases	SGPT “ALAT” M: < 40 U/L W: < 39 U/L SGOT “ASAT” M: < 40 U/L W: < 35 U/L
	Gamma-GT	M: < 55 U/L W: < 45 U/L

Hepatitis C “genotype 1 to 6”	Transaminases	SGPT “ALAT” M: < 40U/L W: < 39 U/L SGOT “ASAT” M: < 40 U/L F: < 35 U/L
	Gamma-GT	M: < 55 U/L W: < 45 U/L
	Alkaline phosphatase	M <20 years: 53 – 367 U/L 20-50 years 55 – 125 U/L 50-60 years 57 – 118 U/L >60 years 58 – 155 U/L W <20 years: 53 – 367 U/L 20 – 50 years 43 – 97 U/L 50 – 60 years 52 – 140 U/L >60 years 42 – 163 U/L
	PCR “HC”
	Total Protein Test	> 6,0 a 8,3 g/dl
	Fibrometer or fibrotest
	Abdominal echo
VIH	CD4	> 500 a 1500 cells/mm3
	Viral load	< 50 copies/ml
Hepatitis D	Refer (hepatitis B)

Note that some values may vary according to each laboratory. It takes into consideration sex, age, body mass index, and even temperature.

Description of anomalies

The PCR “HB” chain polymerization reaction allows the detection of the viral DNA of the subjects infected with the virus of the hepatitis B or C virus even when this one is in small quantity, and also allows us to have a certainty the presence of viral nucleic acid in the serum “blood, saliva, sperm … etc.”. In contrast, the search for surface antigen “HBs Ag” is used to detect only the virus, but does not prevent the presence of viral replication.
