NUCLEOSIDE ANALOGUES: LAMIVUDINE, EMTRICITABINE, TELBIVUDINE AND ENTECAVIR LAMIVUDINE The first nucleoside analogue approved for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B was lamivudine (3TC). Novartis Pharmaceuticals Canada and Health Canada notified health care professionals March 7 of an increased risk of peripheral neuropathy observed in chronic hepatitis B patients treated with Sebivo (telbivudine) in combination with Pegasys (peginterferon alfa-2a), compared to the interferon or telbivudine alone, during a controlled pilot clinical trial. Since 1996, four oral antiviral medications have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for treatment of hepatitis B: lamivudine, adefovir dipivoxil, entecavir and telbivudine. |
