What are the long term effects of hepatitis A?
It is not unusual for blood chemistry to remain abnormal for several months, delaying full recovery for up to a year. Most patients, however, recover completely within 3 – 6 months of the onset of symptoms. Relapse can occur with Hepatitis A, usually within three months of the initial illness – and it is more common in children than adults. The vast majority of people will fully recover from Hepatitis A, which does not lead to chronic hepatitis.
