Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (a prodrug of tenofovir) is a fumaric acid salt of bisisopropoxycarbonyloxymethyl ester derivative of tenofovir. In vivo tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is converted to tenofovir, an acyclic nucleoside phosphonate (nucleotide) analog of adenosine 5'-monophosphate. Tenofovir exhibits activity against HIV-1 reverse transcriptase. The chemical name of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is 9-[( R )-2-[[bis[[(isopropoxycarbonyl)oxy]methoxy]phosphinyl]methoxy]propyl]adenine fumarate (1:1). It has a molecular formula of C 19 H 30 N 5 O 10 P • C 4 H 4 O 4 and a molecular weight of 635.52. It has the following structural formula: Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is a white to off-white crystalline powder with a solubility of 13.4 mg/mL in distilled water at 25 °C. It has an octanol/phosphate buffer (pH 6.5) partition coefficient (log p) of 1.25 at 25 °C. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is available as tablets. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate tablets are for oral administration in strength of 300 mg of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, which is equivalent to 245 mg of tenofovir disoproxil. Each tablet contains the following inactive ingredients: croscarmellose sodium, lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, and pregelatinized starch. The tablets are coated with Opadry White Y-1-7000 , which contains Hypromellose, Titanium dioxide USP & Polyethylene glycol 400 (Macrogol) USP. In this insert, all dosages are expressed in terms of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate except where otherwise noted. Image
