Description:Tenofovir disoproxil, belongs to a class of antiretroviral drugs known as nucleotide analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors(NRTIs), which block reverse transcriptase, a crucial viral enzyme in human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) andhepatitis B virus infections.
Tenofovir is used along with other medications to treat human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Tenofovir is in a class of medications called nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). It works by decreasing the amount of HIV in the blood. Although tenofovir does not cure HIV, it may decrease your chance of developing acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and HIV-related illnesses such as serious infections or cancer. Taking these medications along with practicing safer sex and making other life-style changes may decrease the risk of transmitting (spreading) the HIV virus to other people.
