Adefovir
Short Description
Adefovir is an antiviral medicine used to treat chronic hepatitis B in adults and children who are at least 12 years old.
The mechanism of action of adefovir is to prevent viral replication by inhibiting the reverse transcriptase enzyme, which in turn reduces viral DNA synthesis, which leads to the inhibition of hepatitis B virus replication in the body.
But it is worth noting that adefovir will not cure hepatitis B and may not prevent its complications, such as: cirrhosis or liver cancer, and it may not prevent its spread to other people.
