Paniv
Paniv Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.
Paniv Disoproxil Fumarate, an acyclic nucleotide analogue of adenosine monophosphate, is a pro-drug of Paniv. It shows activity against hepatitis B virus polymerase and HIV reverse transcriptase after phosphorylation to the active diphosphate form. Paniv diphosphate inhibits viral polymerase (reverse transcriptase) by directly competing with the natural substrate deoxyribonucleotide and by causing DNA chain termination after its incorporation into viral DNA.
Paniv has been shown to be highly effective in patients that have never had an antiretroviral therapy and it seemed to have lower toxicity than other antivirals such as stavudine. In phase 3 clinical trials, tenofovir presented a similar efficacy than efavirenz in treatment-naive HIV patients. In hepatitis B infected patients, after one year of tenofovir treatment, the viral DNA levels were undetectable.

Uses
This is used for the treatment of:
- Chronic hepatitis B virus infection in adults
- HIV infected adults in combination with other anti retroviral agents
How Paniv works
Once tenofovir is activated by a bi-phosphorylation it acts as an antiviral acyclic nucleoside phosphonate. It is a potent inhibitor of the viral reverse transcriptase with an inhibitory constant of approximately 0.022 micromolar.
Once activated, tenofovir acts with different mechanisms including the inhibition of viral polymerase causing chain termination and the inhibition of viral synthesis. All these activities are attained by its competition with deoxyadenosine 5'-triphosphate in the generation of new viral DNA. Once tenofovir is incorporated in the chain, it induces a chain termination which in order inhibits viral replication. The safety of tenofovir relies on its low affinity towards the cellular DNA polymerase including the mitochondrial DNA polymerase gamma.
Dosage
Paniv dosage
The recommended dose of Paniv in chronic hepatitis B virus infection in adults 18 years of age and older with adequate renal function is 300 mg once daily with or without food.
Side Effects
The most common side effects are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and flatulence.
Toxicity
There haven't been reports regarding the LD50 of the parent compound nor the effects of an overdose. However, based on the reports with the derivative that most rapidly transforms into tenofovir, tenofovir disoproxil, it is recommended to monitor overdose patients. As well, it is widely known that tenofovir is efficiently removed by hemodialysis.
Administration of high doses of tenofovir has been reported to produce bone toxicity reported as osteomalacia and reduced bone mineral density and to produce some degree of renal toxicity.
To know more about the carcinogenicity and mutagenic potential of tenofovir, as well as the effect on fertility, please visit the drug entries for the derivatives tenofovir disoproxil and tenofovir alafenamide.
Precaution
Co-administration with other drugs: Paniv should not be administered concurrently with Emtricitabine & Paniv combination or Adefovir Dipivoxil.
Lactic Acidosis & Severe Hepatomegaly with Steatosis: Though the risk of occurrence of lactic acidosis is low for Paniv, treatment should be suspended in any patient who develops lactic acidosis or hepatotoxicity.
Exacerbation of hepatitis after discontinuation of treatment: Discontinuation of Panivtherapy may be associated with severe acute exacerbation of hepatitis.
Interaction
Co-administration of Paniv with anti-retroviral, entecavir, lamivudine, methadone, oral contraceptives, ribavirin and tacrolimus did not result in significant drug interactions. The effects of co-administration of Paniv with other drugs that are renally eliminated or are known to affect renal function have not been evaluated.
Food Interaction
- Take with food.
[Minor] Food enhances the oral absorption and bioavailability of tenofovir, the active entity of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate.
According to the product labeling, administration of the drug following a high-fat meal increased the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of tenofovir by approximately 14% and 40%, respectively, compared to administration in the fasting state.
However, administration with a light meal did not significantly affect the pharmacokinetics of tenofovir compared to administration in the fasting state.
Food delays the time to reach tenofovir Cmax by approximately 1 hour.
Paniv disoproxil fumarate may be administered without regard to meals.

Volume of Distribution
Accumulation of tenofovir in plasma is related to the presence of nephrotoxic effects. It is reported that tenofovir presents a volume of distribution of 0.813 L/kg.
Elimination Route
Paniv as the active moiety presents a very low bioavailability when orally administered. Hence, the administration of this active agent is required to be under its two prodrug forms, tenofovir disoproxil and tenofovir alafenamide. This reduced absorption is suggested to be related to the presence of two negative charges among its structure. This negative charge limits its cellular penetration, and its passive diffusion across cellular membranes and intestinal mucosa hindering its availability for oral administration.
Intravenous tenofovir has been shown to produce a maximum plasma concentration of 2500 ng/ml with an AUC of 4800 ng.h/ml.
Half Life
The reported half-life of tenofovir is of 32 hours.
Clearance
The clearance of tenofovir is highly dependent on the patient renal stage and hence the clearance rate in patients with renal impairment is reported to be of 134 ml/min while in patients with normal function the clearance rate can be of 210 ml/min.
Elimination Route
Paniv is eliminated in the urine by tubular secretion and glomerular filtration. The elimination of this compound is driven by the activity of the human organic anion transporters 1 and 3 and its secretion is mainly ruled by the activity of the multidrug resistance-associated protein 4.
Pregnancy & Breastfeeding use
Pregnancy: Pregnancy category B. It should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed.
Lactation: It is not known whether it is excreted in human milk. Mothers should be instructed not to breast feed if they are taking Paniv.
Contraindication
Paniv is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to Paniv or any component of the product.
Special Warning
Pediatric use: Safety and effectiveness of Paniv in pediatric patients below the age of 18 years have not been established.Geriatrics use: Clinical studies of Paniv did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 years and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects. But care should be taken in dose selection, and it may be useful to monitor renal function.Renal Impairment: Haemodialysis patients: 300 mg once every 7 days or after a cumulative total of 12 hr of dialysis.
- CrCl (10-29 mL/min): 300 mg 72-96 hrly.
