Product Description

Entecavir (Antecavir 0.5) is a medication used in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. It's an antiviral medication that helps to slow the progression of the virus in the body.

Here are some key points about Entecavir 0.5 mg tablets:


1. Indications: Entecavir is used for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B infection in adults and pediatric patients (2 years of age and older) with evidence of active viral replication and either evidence of persistent elevations in serum aminotransferases (a type of liver enzyme) or histologically active disease.

2. Mechanism of Action: Entecavir works by inhibiting the replication of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in the body. It is a nucleoside analogue that is incorporated into the viral DNA, leading to chain termination and preventing further viral replication.

3. Dosage: The dosage of Entecavir can vary depending on factors such as the patient's age, weight, and kidney function. The usual dose for adults is 0.5 mg once daily on an empty stomach, at least 2 hours after a meal.

4. Monitoring: Regular monitoring of liver function, kidney function, and HBV viral load is typically done during treatment with Entecavir to assess the effectiveness of the medication and detect any potential side effects.

5. Side Effects: Common side effects of Entecavir may include headache, dizziness, fatigue, and nausea. Serious side effects are rare but can include lactic acidosis and severe hepatomegaly with steatosis.

6. Duration of Treatment: Treatment with Entecavir is often long-term, and stopping the medication without consulting a healthcare professional can lead to a recurrence of hepatitis B.

7. Pregnancy and Lactation: The use of Entecavir during pregnancy should be carefully considered, and the potential benefits should outweigh the risks. It is important to discuss this with a healthcare provider. Entecavir may be used during breastfeeding, but the risks and benefits should be evaluated.
