Tenfoclear Tablets – Generic Viread

What Is Tenfoclear Tablets – Generic Viread?

Tenfoclear Tablets are the generic equivalent of Viread (Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate), an antiretroviral medicine widely prescribed as part of combination therapy for HIV-1 and chronic hepatitis B. Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate belongs to a class of medicines called nucleotide analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). It works by blocking reverse transcriptase, an enzyme crucial for viral replication, helping control viral load and protect immune and liver function.

How Tenfoclear Tablets Work

Tenfoclear’s active ingredient Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate enters viral-infected cells where it is converted to its active metabolite. This metabolite inhibits viral reverse transcriptase, preventing the virus from multiplying in the body. By reducing viral replication, Tenfoclear supports immune system preservation in HIV and reduces liver damage progression in chronic hepatitis B.

Mechanism of Action

• Inhibits viral reverse transcriptase enzyme

• Reduces viral replication in HIV and hepatitis B

• Helps lower viral load and support immune/liver health
