Mechanism of Action of Vonavir Efavirenz, Emtricitabine, and Tenofovir Tablets IP
Efavirenz is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) that works by binding to the reverse transcriptase enzyme, preventing the conversion of viral RNA into DNA. This inhibition blocks viral replication and reduces the viral load.
Emtricitabine is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) that works by incorporating itself into the viral DNA chain, leading to chain termination and preventing further viral replication.
Tenofovir is a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NtRTI) that interferes with the reverse transcription process by incorporating into the viral DNA, causing chain termination and inhibiting viral replication.
