Vemlidy contains the active ingredient tenofovir alafenamide. It is a prescription antiviral medication used to treat chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.
Vemlidy is used to treat chronic hepatitis B in adults and certain children.
Chronic hepatitis B is a long-term viral infection that affects the liver. Over time, untreated HBV can cause liver inflammation and may lead to serious liver problems.
Vemlidy helps lower the amount of hepatitis B virus in the body and can reduce ongoing liver damage.
Vemlidy belongs to a group of antiviral medications called nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs).
It blocks an enzyme that hepatitis B needs to make copies of its genetic material.
By slowing the virus from multiplying, Vemlidy helps reduce the amount of HBV in the blood and may improve liver health.
Vemlidy helps control hepatitis B, but it does not cure the infection.
Continue taking Vemlidy exactly as prescribed, even if you feel well. Stopping hepatitis B treatment suddenly can cause the infection to become more active and may lead to serious liver problems.
Your healthcare provider will usually monitor your liver function and hepatitis B levels during treatment.
Vemlidy is taken by mouth once daily with food.
Taking it with food helps your body absorb the medication properly.
The usual dose for adults and eligible pediatric patients is 25 mg once daily with food.
Current prescribing information includes pediatric patients 6 years of age and older who weigh at least 25 kg.
Take the tablet exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
Try to take Vemlidy at about the same time every day to help you remember your dose and maintain consistent treatment.
No dose adjustment is usually needed if your estimated kidney function is 15 mL/min or higher.
Vemlidy may also be used in people with end-stage renal disease who are receiving chronic hemodialysis.
On dialysis days, take Vemlidy after your hemodialysis session is finished.
Vemlidy is not recommended for people with end-stage renal disease who are not receiving chronic hemodialysis.
Take Vemlidy every day as prescribed, even if you feel well.
Hepatitis B can remain active without causing noticeable symptoms, so regular treatment is important for keeping the virus under control.
Do not increase, decrease, or stop Vemlidy without speaking with your healthcare provider.
Stopping hepatitis B treatment can cause the virus to become more active and may lead to a serious worsening of liver disease.
If you miss a dose of Vemlidy, take it when you remember unless it is almost time for your next scheduled dose.
If your next dose is approaching, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule.
Do not take two doses at the same time to make up for a missed dose.
Your healthcare provider may order blood and urine tests before and during treatment to monitor:
These tests help make sure Vemlidy is working safely and effectively.
Vemlidy (Tenofovir alafenamide) is available in the following forms and strength:
Do not stop taking Vemlidy without speaking with your healthcare provider.
Stopping hepatitis B treatment can cause the virus to become more active and may lead to a serious worsening of hepatitis B.
Your healthcare provider may monitor your liver function for several months after Vemlidy is stopped.
Vemlidy should not be used by itself to treat HIV-1 infection.
Before starting Vemlidy, your healthcare provider should test you for HIV.
If someone has both hepatitis B and HIV and takes Vemlidy alone, the HIV virus may become resistant to certain antiviral medications.
Vemlidy can cause new or worsening kidney problems. Rare cases of acute kidney failure and kidney tubule problems have also been reported.
The risk may be higher if you already have kidney disease or take other medicines that can affect the kidneys.
Your healthcare provider may monitor:
Contact your healthcare provider if you notice major changes in urination, unusual weakness, swelling, or other symptoms of kidney problems.
Rarely, medicines in this drug class can cause lactic acidosis, which is a dangerous buildup of lactic acid in the blood.
They can also cause severe liver enlargement with fat buildup.
Seek medical attention if you develop symptoms such as:
Vemlidy can interact with other medications.
Some drugs can lower the amount of Vemlidy in your body and make it less effective. Other medicines may increase the risk of kidney problems.
Tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medications, over-the-counter products, vitamins, supplements, and herbal products you use.
Particular caution may be needed with medications that strongly affect P-glycoprotein (P-gp) or kidney function.
Vemlidy is used in people with chronic hepatitis B and compensated liver disease.
It is not recommended for people with moderate or severe decompensated liver disease.
Your healthcare provider may monitor your liver function regularly during treatment.
Tell your healthcare provider if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
Available pregnancy information has not shown a clear increased risk of major birth defects from tenofovir alafenamide, but your healthcare provider will consider the benefits and potential risks before recommending treatment.
Do not stop Vemlidy during pregnancy without medical advice, because stopping hepatitis B treatment can cause the infection to worsen.
Tell your healthcare provider if you are breastfeeding or planning to breastfeed.
Your healthcare provider will consider your treatment needs, the benefits of breastfeeding, and any potential risks to the infant before advising you.
Your healthcare provider may order regular blood and urine tests while you are taking Vemlidy.
These tests may check:
Keep all scheduled follow-up appointments so your healthcare provider can make sure Vemlidy is working safely.
Treatment for chronic hepatitis B is often long-term. Continue taking Vemlidy every day for as long as your healthcare provider recommends, even if you feel well and have no symptoms. Do not stop Vemlidy on your own. Stopping treatment can cause hepatitis B to become more active and may lead to a serious worsening of liver disease.
No. Vemlidy does not cure hepatitis B. It helps lower the amount of hepatitis B virus in your body and can reduce ongoing liver inflammation and damage. The virus can remain in the body even when treatment is working well, so regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is important.
Alcohol can damage the liver, and hepatitis B already affects liver health. It is best to ask your healthcare provider whether alcohol is safe for you while taking Vemlidy. Depending on your liver condition, your healthcare provider may recommend limiting or avoiding alcohol.
If you miss a dose of Vemlidy, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not take two doses at the same time to make up for a missed dose.
