ContraVir reports data shows CMX157 more potent against HBV than Gilead Viread ContraVir Pharmaceuticals (CTRV) announced preliminary data dramatizing the unique properties of CMX157, the company's highly potent lipid prodrug of the successful antiviral drug tenofovir, or TFV. CMX157 was shown to be 60-fold more active than tenofovir against the hepatitis B virus, or HBV, based on in vitro studies.

There are now very clear guidelines regarding whether there is a need to treat, when and what drug to use. Viread is one of the drugs that can be used throughout pregnancy if it is necessary to treat, it is a class b drug. So discuss with your doctor if you have any concerns.

do you mean that Tenofovir can make HBsAg positive to HBsAg negative? is that for real?

a little higher than normal(lower than 80), the new normal alt level is 19 for women from 2009, 80 is by far abnormal active DNA detected why did you stop viread without any knowledge of your drug and illness, viread is safe for the baby, restart it immediately also to protect baby from hbv there are other pregnant women taking viread here and since viread is also used on hiv the number of babies borne while taking viread is very very high and no problems at all restart viread as soon as poss

I am a healthy carrier of HBV and have been taking viread for more than 1 year. The latest blood test showed that HBV DNA was below the detection limit. I came to malaysia to work recently and after I came here, I tried to get viread and seems i could not find it anywhere. My doctor recommand that I can take Baraclude, but I am a little worried. I saw in the old post, that people take both, but for my case, by just pure change from one to another, will there be any side effect?

Yes, Viread is considered to be safe for women during pregnancy. What I like to know is whether it is also okay for men to take Viread when they also want to father a child.

m still doing well T- cells about 800 .Just started new med combo ( Prezista,Truvada,Combivr, Viread ). They make me ill Doc says I will get used to them . Anyone been here ? how long does it take on avarege . It has only been a week .

no defect ever happened on viread until now when the mother is taking the drug, the father has nothing to do with the pregnancy and his seamen has nothing to do with the drug

1. Should I take VIREAD immediately as suggested by my primary care doctor? And why? 2. Will VIREAD change my life style, i.e. make me exercise less, no more hiking / skiing trip? 3. Am I correct that I will take VIREAD for life? 4. When will VIREAD develop resistance? Any known data / study on this? 5. What is the life expectancy can I expect? Thank you again for sharing your information. God Bless.

Nov 26 14 Alt 84 Ast 56 Dec 31 14 Alt 274 Ast 94 I started feeling sick, tire, trouble sleeping, mild stomach pain. My doctor put me on viread 1/15 and experience severe acid reflux, heartburn, nausea, dizziness, back pain and cant eat or sleep. on 1/18 i stop viread and called doctor and agreed for me to be off viread for a few days to see if the symptom i experienced are side effects from viread. I'm not feeling any better and decided to go see my primary doctor.

My doctor suggests that I participate in the drug trial of Tenefovir (Viread) versus Tenofovir in combination with Emtricitibine (Truvada). I have chronic Hepatitis B and Lamivudine resistance last year. He gave me a document to read and I did a bit of research on internet on the side effect. My concern is the side effect especially on Kidney. Could you give me some advice if I should participate in the drug trial or stay with my current medicine Hepsera.

I think both India generics and the original US FDA approved drug Viread would most likely be the same but you also have to bear in mind that Gilead is the manufacturer that took the drug to US clinical trial and is subject to US's rigorous FDA control. India generics are subject to much less regulation although Cipla is also a reputable drugs manufacturer in India. Gilead's Viread is the only approved TDF drug in the US right now because of its patents so I have to take it here.

Is switching from Baraclude to Hepsera a valid treatment option, then? Shouldn't Viread have been tried next?

The ability of each to shut down HBV replication was determined by a parameter called effective concentration (EC), which measures the degree to which viral replication is inhibited for a given concentration of drug. EC50, for example, is the concentration of drug that reduces viral replication by 50%. EC50 values for CMX157 and TAF were 9.3 (range: 5.7 - 12.9) and 32.4 (range: 15.3 - 49.5), respectively.
