Works as of Tenvir AF 25mg (Tenofovir Alafenamide 25mg)
Tenvir AF 25mg (Tenofovir Alafenamide 25mg)-Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF) TAF is a promedicines of tenofovir (parent medicines) At first, TAF is penetrating into hepatic cells because it has lipophilic cell permeable capacity. After enters into the cells, TAF undergoes hydrolysis by using carboxylesterase-1 and to formed as tenofovir. Tenofovir involved in intracellular metabolism, which is phosphorylated into tenofovir triphosphate. Tenofovir triphosphate is considered as an active metabolite which has anti-viral property and integrated into viral DNA by hepatitis B reverse transcriptase enzyme and leads to inhibits viral production thus results as termination of viral chain.
