WHAT EMTRICITABINE/TENOFOVIR DISOPROXIL TEVA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED
FOR
EMTRICITABINE/TENOFOVIR DISOPROXIL TEVA CONTAINS TWO ACTIVE
SUBSTANCES, _emtricitabine _
and
_tenofovir _
_disoproxil_
. Both of these active substances are
_antiretroviral _
medicines which are used to treat HIV
infection. Emtricitabine is a
_nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor _
and tenofovir is a
_nucleotide reverse _
_transcriptase inhibitor. _
However, both are generally known as NRTIs and they work by
interfering with the
normal working of an enzyme (reverse transcriptase) that is essential
for the virus to reproduce itself.
