  Overview

  Hepatitis is an essential disease state for pharmacy technicians to understand. There are many new cases diagnosed each year, along with a large number of deaths that also occur annually. It is important to understand this disease state because certain types of hepatitis are vaccine-preventable, and this can prevent infections and long-term health issues that can occur from being infected with hepatitis. This monograph will provide a thorough overview of hepatitis.
