Any treatment for the hepatitis virus carrier?

Hepatitis doesn't have any treatments: no viruses do.
depends on what kind of hepatitis virus, you're talking about and if the person has an active infection.

if the person is a chronic hepatitis B carrier, with no sign of active infection, or is not immunocompromised, cirrhotic, or undergoing dialysis, he or she will usually respond to HBV vaccination. hepatitis C has no available vaccine.

if the person has an active infection, supportive treatment (ie fluids, electrolytes, anti-inflammatory drugs) is given. hepatitis usually resolves spontaneously in 4 to 8 weeks. though a more favorable prognosis is given for Hep A more than Hep B or C.
