About Entehep 1 Tablet 3
Entehep 1 Tablet 3 is used to treat chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Hepatitis B is a severe liver infection caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). It is highly contagious (spreads from one person to another) and spreads through intimate contact with the infected person, direct contact with infected blood, being pricked with a contaminated needle, using a razor or any other personal items with leftovers of infected fluid or even transfer from mother to baby during birth.
Entehep 1 Tablet 3 contains Entecavir, an antiviral drug that works by inhibiting viral DNA polymerase enzyme action in the liver cells, which is essential for the virus to multiply. Therefore, it prevents the virus from replicating and reduces the amount of hepatitis B virus in the body.
