Description
(extracted from source data)
PHARMACODYNAMICS
Lamivudine is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) with activity against Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) and hepatitis B (HBV) to disrupt viral DNA synthesis. When phosphorylated, lamivudine can form active metabolites that compete for incorporation into viral DNA. Via DNA incorporation, lamivudine metabolites competitively inhibit the activity of the HIV reverse transcriptase enzyme and act as a chain terminator of DNA synthesis. Due to the lack of a 3'-OH group, incorporated nucleoside analogues prevent the formation of a 5' to 3' phosphodiester linkage that is essential for DNA chain elongation.
DESCRIPTION
Lamivudine is an antiretroviral drug. It inhibits HIV-1 reverse transcriptase, and it belongs to the nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) class of antiretriviral drugs.
