Consult your doctor for the correct dosage and ensure they are aware of any pre-existing conditions or other medications you are taking. Report any side effects to your doctor immediately and continue the medicine as prescribed.
Tenvir Tablet is used for managing HIV-1 infection in adults and children over 2 years old, in combination with other antiretroviral agents. It is also used to manage chronic hepatitis B (HBV) infection in individuals over 12 years old, helping control the viral liver infection.

Tenvir Tablet may cause side effects such as rash, diarrhoea, headache, pain, depression, nausea, and asthenia (weakness or lack of energy). If these side effects persist or worsen, consult your doctor.
Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Tenvir Tablet . However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.
Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:
Diarrhoea: Try taking Tenvir Tablet with food to lessen this effect.
Nausea: If you are feeling nauseated, consider taking this medicine after meals.
Tenvir Tablet contains tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (300 mg), which acts on your body in multiple ways:
Conversion to Active Form: After you take Tenvir Tablet, it gets converted into an active form called tenofovir inside your body.
Inhibits Viral Replication: Tenofovir competes with the natural building blocks of DNA inside viruses like HIV-1 and HBV, effectively preventing them from replicating.
Leads to DNA Chain Termination: Once incorporated into the viral DNA, tenofovir causes premature termination of the DNA chain. This stops the virus from replicating further and helps control the infection in your body.
It's recommended to consult your doctor before taking this medicine during pregnancy. Your doctor can best advise if the benefits outweigh any potential risks.
Mothers receiving Tenvir Tablet are advised not to breastfeed as the active ingredient may pass into breast milk and affect the baby.
Caution is advised regarding alcohol consumption while on this medication.

Tenvir Tablet has been known to cause renal impairment in some cases. If you have a history of kidney problems, consulting your doctor before starting this medication is recommended.
No specific data suggest that Tenvir Tablet impacts your ability to drive or operate machinery. However, any medicine can cause side effects which could affect these abilities. Be careful and consult your doctor if you experience anything unusual.
If you have known allergies to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate or any other components of Tenvir Tablet , it's important that you discuss this with your doctor before starting the medication.
Tenvir Tablet is not recommended for children under 2 years of age suffering from HIV-1 infection or under 12 years suffering from chronic HBV infection. Always consult your doctor before giving this medicine to a child.
Older patients should take Tenvir Tablet under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Caution is advised if patients are above 70 years of age. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.
Tenvir Tablet interacts with the following medicines:
Medicines Eliminated by Active Tubular Secretion: Medications such as cidofovir, acyclovir, valacyclovir, ganciclovir, and valganciclovir may interact with Tenvir Tablet. This may increase the concentration of either tenofovir or the co-administered medicine in your system.
Renal Function Reducing Medicines: Medicines that decrease renal function can increase concentrations of tenofovir. These could include certain types of diuretics like furosemide.

Hepatitis B: If you have chronic hepatitis B and discontinue the use of TDF, it might lead to a severe acute exacerbation of your hepatitis.
