Biochem/physiol Actions

Tenofovir has a low oral bioavailability. Hence, it is available as a prodrug called tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. Once ingested, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is hydrolyzed to tenofovir and phosphorylated. This is then incorporated into the viral DNA which leads to chain termination. Tenofovir is also effective against hepatitis B virus.
Tenofovir is a nucleotide analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitor (nRTI) that causes premature termination of DNA transcription. Tenofovir is an antiretroviral used for HIV treatment and prevention.

Bis(isopropyloxymethylcarbonyl) 9-R-(2-phosphonomethoxypropyl)adenine [bis(POC)PMPA] has been identified as a novel prodrug of PMPA. The anti-human immunodeficiency virus activity of bis(POC)PMPA was >100-fold greater than that of PMPA in both an established T-cell line and primary peripheral blood lymphocytes. This improved efficacy
