About This Medicine

Product description & overview

Gepatit Tablet contains Entecavir 0.5 mg, a potent antiviral agent indicated for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in adults with evidence of active viral replication and either persistent elevations in serum aminotransferases or histologically active disease. Entecavir is a nucleoside analogue that inhibits HBV replication by targeting the viral polymerase, thereby reducing viral load and improving liver histology. Gepatit Tablet is administered orally and is generally well tolerated, with common adverse effects including headache, fatigue, dizziness, and nausea. It is essential to monitor liver function tests and HBV DNA levels periodically during therapy to assess treatment efficacy and detect potential resistance. Gepatit should be used with caution in patients with renal impairment, and dose adjustments may be necessary. It is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to Entecavir or any component of the formulation. Patients co-infected with HIV should receive appropriate antiretroviral therapy as Entecavir is not effective against HIV and may lead to resistance. Gepatit Tablet is a valuable option in the management of chronic hepatitis B, aiming to suppress viral replication, reduce liver inflammation, and prevent progression to cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma.
