Medical use /Indication of Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg)

The major usage of Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) tablets are :

Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) tablets are involved in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B viral infection in adults and pediatric patients with the age of 2 years and older with the sign of active viral production, either constant eminence of serum aminotransferase or histological effective disease. Before initiating the therapy with Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) tablets, the crucial points should be considered; The evidence of Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) in adult patients based on the clinical trial data in nucleoside inhibitor therapy for new patients and patient opposed to lamivudine treatment with HBeAg positive and HBeAg negative HBV infection and compensated liver cirrhosis & minor in decompensated cirrhosis. In children with the age of 2 years or older: Used for nucleoside inhibitor therapy naïve, lamivudine resistance patients with HBeAg positive chronic HBV infection and compensated cirrhosis patients.

Works as of  Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg)

Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) enclose as Entecavir as an active component, a synthetic analogue of 2-deoxyguanosine has anti-viral activity against hepatitis B virus. Entecavir is triggers in-vivo into 5-triphosphate metabolite which is an active form of Entecavir. Successively, the active metabolite triphosphate form strike with natural substrate deoxyguanosine triphosphate dGTP for infusion into viral DNA. Hence infusion of the activated triphosphate metabolite of Entecavir leads to inhibition of reverse transcriptase enzyme. For viral production and transcription RT is required, thus inhibition results as cell lysis.

ADME of Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg)

For chronic hepatitis B viral infection, using Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) tablets after an oral administration undergoes absorption, distribution, metabolism & elimination.

After attaining peak plasma concentration time, the plasma concentration of Entecavir is reduced in bi exponential aspect. The terminal half life period of Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) tablet is 128 to 149 hours Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) is excreted via kidneys with the range of 62% to 73% in unchanged form.

Precaution of Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg)

There are two major unfavorable conditions may occur during or after discontinuation of therapy with Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) tablets. It may include as : Hepatitis B aggravation occurs severely after therapy Lactic acidosis or hepatomegaly with steatosis.

In lactic acidosis or hepatomegaly with steatosis :

Nucleoside analogue inclusive of Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg), using alone or combination with other anti-retroviral medicines, reported has fatal cases like lactic acidosis or hepatomegaly with steatosis. This condition is majorly occurs in women, causes obesity and extended nucleoside inhibitor risk. Discontinue the therapy If this adverse effect occurs or otherwise provide supportive measures.
In hepatitis B reactivation : This side effect occurs mostly after the stopping of anti-hepatitis B viral therapy frequently. Hepatic or liver function test should be periodically taken for the patients To avoid this condition, The patients who are getting hepatitis B infection after the treatment, recurrently will get Anti-hepatitis B viral therapy

In patients with HBV/HIV co infection : 

Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) usage is not assessed in HBV/HIV co infected patients who are not correspondingly getting anti-retroviral medication. Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) tablets used to treat chronic hepatitis B infection in HIV infected patients that are not being used if there is a possible to get advancement of resistance to HIV nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. Patient must investigate by checking the HIV antibody before starting therapy with Entecavir

Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) causes some effects due to interact with other medicines:

Concurrent use of Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) with lamivudine, Adefovir or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate cause no serious medicines interactions Some medicines may cause some effects while concomitant with Entecavir, it may follow as; Chlorpheniramine Ginkgo Biloba Aspirin Lamivudine Metoprolol Valproate sodium Paracetamol, Sorafenib, KCl in sodium chloride Hence, Entehep 0.5mg (Entecavir 0.5mg) is eliminated after metabolism through kidneys.
