Hepatitis remains one of the most critical global health challenges of our time. On 19 May, the world observes World Hepatitis Day—a moment to unite public health efforts, promote prevention, and emphasize the importance of liver health through awareness, screening, and innovation in treatment.
At Inducare Pharmaceuticals & Research Foundation (IPRF), we are committed to driving research-based solutions and pharmaceutical excellence that support the early detection, prevention, and management of liver diseases, including viral hepatitis.
Understanding Hepatitis and Its Impac
Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver, most commonly caused by viral infections—classified as Hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E. Among these, Hepatitis B and C can lead to chronic illness, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma, silently affecting millions worldwide.
Over 354 million people globally are living with chronic hepatitis B or C (WHO).
In India, 40 million people are estimated to be Hepatitis B positive, with a significant proportion unaware of their condition.
This asymptomatic progression often delays diagnosis, allowing long-term liver damage to occur before treatment begins.
The Role of Research and Innovation
At IIPRF, our pharmaceutical research and development efforts focus on:
Developing safe, effective oral formulations that support liver health
Conducting clinical evaluations of herbal and modern liver-protective compounds
Providing analytical testing services to ensure drug safety, efficacy, and compliance with global standards
Supporting pharmacovigilance systems to track adverse drug reactions, particularly for hepatotoxicity
By combining traditional wisdom with modern scientific protocols, we continue to explore integrated solutions that address complex liver health concerns.
Prevention is the Priority
World Hepatitis Day is a reminder that timely prevention and early diagnosis save lives. Key preventive strategies include:
Vaccination for Hepatitis A and B
Safe injection practices and blood screening
Sanitation and hygiene
Avoiding alcohol misuse and harmful substances
Regular liver function monitoring for at-risk individuals
Our Vision: Strengthening Liver Health Through Science
Inducare Pharmaceuticals & Research Foundation is driven by the vision of global healthcare improvement through high-quality, evidence-backed solutions. We aim to play a vital role in tackling hepatitis by supporting:
Public awareness campaigns
Collaborative research projects
Product development for liver support and disease management
Knowledge sharing with clinicians, researchers, and regulatory bodies
Call to Action
This World Hepatitis Day, IPRF encourages individuals, healthcare providers, and institutions to:
Promote liver health awareness
Encourage hepatitis screening
Support safe practices in healthcare and lifestyle
Engage in research and innovation to reduce the burden of liver disease
Your liver is essential. Let’s protect it—with knowledge, with science, and with action.
