Tenofovir

NRTI active (extracellular)prescription

Active nucleotide analog released from tenofovir alafenamide (TAF, cathepsin A) or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF, esterases) prodrugs. Intracellularly phosphorylated to active tenofovir diphosphate. Moderate renal handling; accumulates in kidney tubules.
