General disorders and administration site conditions: Fatigue.
Investigations: Decreased bone mineral density, increased serum alanine aminotransferase.
Musculoskeletal and connective tissue disorders: Arthralgia, back pain.
Nervous system disorders: Dizziness, headache.
Respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders: Cough.
Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders: Rash, pruritus.
Potentially Fatal: Lactic acidosis, hepatomegaly with steatosis.

PO: Z (Current evidence suggests that tenofovir disoproxil does not increase the risk of pregnancy-related adverse effects. Tenofovir disoproxil is one of the recommended antiviral agents in management of HIV and/or hepatitis B during pregnancy.)

This drug may cause dizziness, if affected, do not drive or operate machinery.

Perform HIV testing prior to initiation of therapy. Monitor urine glucose, urine protein prior to initiation and as clinically indicated; LFT, serum creatinine, serum phosphorus.

Increased plasma concentration with P-gp strong inhibitors (e.g. itraconazole, ketoconazole). Decreased plasma concentration with carbamazepine, phenobarbital, fosphenytoin, phenytoin, tipranavir, ritonavir, rifampin, primidone. May diminish the therapeutic effect of cladribine.

Decreased plasma concentration with St. John’s wort.

Description: Tenofovir alafenamide is a phosphonamidite prodrug of tenofovir which inhibits hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication through incorporation into the viral DNA by HBV reverse transcriptase resulting to DNA chain termination.
Pharmacokinetics:
Absorption: Rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Time to peak plasma concentration: 0.48 hours.
Distribution: Crosses placenta, enters breast milk. Plasma protein binding: 80%.
Metabolism: Hydrolysed intracellularly into tenofovir then phosphorylated to the active form, tenofovir diphosphate; minimally metabolised by CYP3A4.
Excretion: Via urine (<1%); faeces (31.7%). Elimination half-life: 0.51 hours.
