Entecavir 1mg Tablets
SKU GME163Product Introduction
Entecavir 1.0mg is an antiviral medicine used for chronic hepatitis B virus infection for entecavir treatment. Entecavir is usually taken on an empty stomach because food can reduce absorption. Treatment should not be stopped suddenly without specialist guidance, as hepatitis B can flare severely after discontinuation. HIV testing or review is important because entecavir alone is not adequate HIV treatment and may select HIV resistance if unrecognized HIV infection is present.
How to use
Take Entecavir 1.0mg exactly as prescribed, usually on an empty stomach at the same time each day. Do not miss doses or stop without specialist advice. Keep HBV DNA, liver-function, and kidney-function follow-up appointments.
How it works
Entecavir is a nucleoside analogue that inhibits hepatitis B viral polymerase. This reduces HBV DNA replication and viral load.
Common side effects
Possible effects include headache, tiredness, dizziness, nausea, sleep disturbance, and raised liver enzymes. Serious warning signs include severe hepatitis flare after stopping, lactic acidosis symptoms, worsening liver disease, jaundice, severe abdominal swelling, or confusion.
Important information
Discuss kidney disease, decompensated liver disease, previous hepatitis B antivirals, HIV status, pregnancy, breastfeeding, transplant medicines, and all antivirals. Continue safe practices to reduce HBV transmission.
Uses
Chronic hepatitis B virus infection when entecavir therapy is prescribed.
Benefits
Suppresses HBV replication, which can lower viral load and help reduce ongoing liver inflammation and damage risk when taken consistently.
What is Entecavir 1.0mg used for?
Entecavir 1.0mg is used to treat chronic hepatitis B infection when prescribed.
Does entecavir cure hepatitis B?
No. It suppresses viral replication but usually does not remove HBV permanently.
Why take it on an empty stomach?
Food can reduce entecavir absorption, so empty-stomach dosing helps maintain exposure.
Can treatment be stopped when tests improve?
No. Stopping can cause severe hepatitis flare, so any change must be specialist-guided.
Why is HIV status relevant?
Entecavir alone is not complete HIV treatment and may contribute to HIV resistance if HIV is untreated.
