In this article, a stochastic SACR hepatitis B epidemic model is taken to be under consideration. We develop a stochastic epidemic model by considering the effect of environmental fluctuation on the hepatitis B dynamics and distribute the transmission rate by white noise. Using the stochastic Lyapunov function theory, we have shown the existence and uniqueness of the global positive solution. The extinction and persistence for our proposed model are derived with sufficient conditions. The numerical simulations are carried out using first-order Itô-Taylor stochastic scheme in the last section for the verification of our theoretical results.
