Renal safety of tenofovir in HIV treatment-experienced patients

Authors:

Abstract
The safety of tenovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) was assessed in two double-blind, placebo-controlled studies. Furthermore, we retrospectively collected 19 cases of TDF-associated tubular dysfunction. The incidence of renal events was similar among the active TDF groups and the placebo group in the two double-blind, placebo-controlled studies. Proximal tubulopathy was diagnosed 6.89 +/- 5.51 months after TDF therapy started. All abnormalities normalized within 4.7 +/- 2.94 weeks after drug discontinuation.
