Product Information
Name:Lamivudine S-oxide
Brand:Biosynth
Description:Lamivudine is an antiviral drug that belongs to the group of nucleoside analogues. It is a prodrug that is activated by intracellular phosphorylation to form the active compound, lamivudine triphosphate (L-TTP). L-TTP inhibits viral replication by competing with natural substrates for incorporation into viral DNA. The antiviral activity of L-TTP has been shown in animals and humans with hepatitis B virus or human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infections. Lamivudine S-oxide is a stereoselective form of lamivudine, which can be used for chemoprophylaxis against the pandemic H1N1 virus. This drug has shown to have a lower toxicity profile than other drugs used for this purpose.
