Virodip Tablet 10 mg contains Adefovir Dipivoxil, an antiviral medication used for the treatment of chronic Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in adults. It belongs to the class of nucleotide analog reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) and works by suppressing viral replication, thereby reducing liver damage and slowing disease progression.

Virodip is particularly indicated for patients with active HBV infection who require long-term antiviral therapy to maintain liver function and prevent complications such as cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma.

Composition

Each tablet contains:

• Adefovir Dipivoxil 10 mg

Mechanism of Action

Adefovir Dipivoxil is a prodrug that is converted in the body to adefovir, which inhibits HBV DNA polymerase. This blocks the replication of viral DNA in infected liver cells, resulting in:

• Reduced viral load

• Slower progression of liver damage

• Decreased risk of liver-related complications

By targeting viral replication, Virodip helps the immune system control HBV infection more effectively.

Virodip Tablet 10 mg is indicated for:

• Chronic Hepatitis B infection in adults with active viral replication
