Viread (tenofovir)

Prescribing Information
Articles on Tenofivir (Viread)

VIREAD® (tenofovir disoproxil fumarate) is a type of medicine called a nucleotide analog reverse transcriptase and hepatitis B virus (HBV) polymerase inhibitor (NRTI). VIREAD is used to treat chronic hepatitis B (an infection with HBV) in adults age 18 years and older. VIREAD works by interfering with the normal working of an enzyme (HBV DNA polymerase) that is essential for the HBV to reproduce itself. VIREAD may help lower the amount of hepatitis B virus in your body by lowering the ability of the virus to multiply and infect new liver cells.
