Product Introduction: Tenofovir is a medication primarily used in the treatment of HIV/AIDS and chronic hepatitis B. It belongs to the class of antiretroviral medications known as nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). Tenofovir is available in various formulations, including oral tablets and oral powder for solution.
Uses:
- HIV/AIDS Treatment: Tenofovir is an essential component of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) for the management of HIV infection. It helps suppress the replication of the HIV virus, reducing viral load and slowing down disease progression.
- Chronic Hepatitis B: Tenofovir is also indicated for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. It works by inhibiting the replication of the hepatitis B virus, thereby reducing liver damage and the risk of complications associated with HBV infection.
Benefits:
- Effective in suppressing HIV replication and reducing viral load.
- Helps to improve the immune function in HIV-infected individuals.
- Reduces the risk of developing complications associated with chronic hepatitis B infection.
- Generally well-tolerated with manageable side effects.

- Liver problems (especially in patients with underlying liver disease)
- Lactic acidosis (a rare but serious metabolic complication)
Safety Advice:
- Take tenofovir exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
- Do not stop taking the medication without consulting your doctor, as this could lead to treatment failure and drug resistance.
- Inform your doctor about any pre-existing medical conditions, especially kidney or liver problems.
- Monitor kidney function regularly, especially in patients at risk for kidney problems.
- Avoid using alcohol or recreational drugs, as they may interact with tenofovir and increase the risk of side effects.
