What is Entecavir?

Entecavir is an antiviral medicine used as a long-term treatment for chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Hepatitis B is an infection of the liver caused by the hepatitis B virus. Prolonged infection results in liver damage, liver cancer in some cases, and liver failure.

 Entecavir belongs to a class of drugs known as hepatitis B virus nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, or nucleoside analogs. This drug helps to lower the amount of hepatitis B virus in your body.

Before taking Entecavir be sure to inform your healthcare provider if you have or have ever had HIV or AIDS (or if you have been exposed to HIV), kidney disease, liver problems other than HBV, a liver transplant; or if you also take lamivudine (Epivir, Epzicom, Trizivir) or telbivudine (Tyzeka). 

Your doctor should also know if you are pregnant or if you become pregnant while taking Entecavir. It may not be safe to breastfeed while using this medicine. Talk to your doctor about any risks involved with pregnancy and breastfeeding. 

It should be noted that this prescription drug is not a cure for the hepatitis B virus, but it decreases the amount of virus in the body.
