tenvir is generic version of tenofovir
tenvir tm is generic version of tenofovir+emtricitabine (truvada) which even more potent than tenofovir alone
entecavir is less potent of both tdf or truvada, i am also on entecavir which is about 1000usd per month changing currency from euro, i have it free in my country but it is absurd to allow such costs for a stupid tablet

Due to the extremely low susceptibility to resistance and very low toxicity this drug became the cornerstone of antiviral treatment for HIV and HBV. It made Gilead Billions, of which Holy has seen a million a year grant for his Institute in Prague.
At the day he died, the FDA had approved Truvada, a combo of tenofovir and emtricitabine (FTC) (300/200mg) for use as a preventative in healthy individuals exposed to risk of infection.
I was also a reciever. After 40 hours I went to the first clinic and they gave me PEP (TenofovirDF, emtricitabine + lamivudine). The clinic looks very unprofessional, but it was my only chance. I didn't do any hiv or std test, a month before the exposure i had HIV test which was negative. After few days I had a mild sore throat, i still have it, i don't have fever, running nose, rash or anything else. My questions are..
An international study found the antiviral combination of tenofovir and emtricitabine (Truvada) was most effective in treating younger adult hepatitis B patients with high viral load and normal ALT levels.
Doctors historically have not treated this group because there appeared to be no sign of liver damage. However, doctors now know that high viral loads may increase patients’ risk of liver damage and cancer as they age, despite their normal ALT levels.
What are my chances of getting infected. Another question was administered a PEP drug emtricitabine and tenofovir, can it prevent me from contracting HiV.
You are correct that Truvada is a combination of tenofovir and emtricitabine, and is generally prescribed for patients with HIV. Being a HBV forum, most of us know very little about Truvada except that it is prescribed off-label for HBV by some doctors, and that it is recommended for HBV patients who develop resistance to Tenofovir.
FTC is Emtricitabine.
, hopes it can have as much success in drugs for hepatitis C as it has had in treating human immunodeficiency virus, or HIV. Gilead was developing its own drug in the same category as PSI-7977, but Gilead executives said Monday it wasn't performing as well in testing.
Gilead said it plans to finance the transaction with cash on hand, bank debt and senior unsecured notes, and expects to close the deal in the first quarter 2012.
...mhhh why dont they buy replicor if it was to cure hbv?

I caught a blurb on the bottom ticker tape on TV that Gilead had purchased Pharmacist(spelling) and was coming onto the market with 3 new HCV drugs. Anyone know anything about that? Just curious, I'm still und as of 11/3/11.
Thanks Gilead.
This is a potential concern because the drugs in Truvada – tenofovir and emtricitabine – are active against HBV as well as HIV.
HIV and HBV are spread through some common transmission routes, including sexual transmission, vertical transmission (mother to child) and via multi-person use of injection equipment.
I asked her of her status and she stated clean. I started PEP within 24 hours. (Teneogovir, emtricitabine, lamivudine ) What are the odds of being infected ? is this low risk ?
I started a course of PEP that included Tenvor-EM (Indian version Emtricitabine/Tenofovir DF) and Kaluvia (generic of lopinavir/retonavir) for 25 days and interrupted it for two reasons:
1-My partner tested Negative(Antigen/ Antibody) on 22 days post exposure
2-Thinking that i might be developing facial Lipodystrophy (slight facial fat loss under cheek bones). I cant tell if my face was like this before the treatment or it is just an illusion.
