  • experimental
DescriptionTenofovir is an acyclic nucleotide diester analog of adenosine monophosphate.[A37693] In the most strict sense and due to the fact that it presents a phosphate group bound to the nitrogenous base, it is determined as an actual nucleotide analog.[A37693] The antiviral activities of tenofovir were first reported in 1993 and this agent was commercially available since 2008 in the form of [tenofovir disoproxil] and [tenofovir alafenamide] in order to obtain oral bioavailability.[A18473, A178360]
Synonyms
  • Anhydrous tenofovir
  • Tenofovir
  • (R)-PMPA
  • Tenofovir hydrate
  • Tenofovir anhydrous
IndicationTenofovir has been shown to be effective against HIV, herpes simplex virus-2, and hepatitis B virus.[A178330] To know more about the specific product indications, please visit the information in the orally available forms of tenofovir, [tenofovir alafenamide] and [tenofovir disoproxil].
