Hepalo 0.5 Tablet ENTECAVIR
What if HIV infection co-exists with HBV infection? Will this affect treatment with Entaliv?
The use of Entaliv is not recommended in HBV patients who are also diagnosed with HIV, until and unless these patients start taking medicines for HIV management. Starting Entaliv in such patients may cause resistance to the prescribed HIV medicines. Therefore, doctors recommend tests for HIV in patients diagnosed with HBV infection before starting treatment with Entaliv.
What is drug resistance? Can I develop drug resistance with Entehep?
Drug resistance is a state where the medicine which was once effective in treating an infection becomes ineffective. This mainly happens due to the ability acquired by the virus or bacteria to get modified inside the body which affects the overall working of the medicine. Hence, the medicine is no longer able to fight against the virus or bacteria. Generally, drug resistance with Entehep is more likely to happen if you take less dose than what is recommended.
