Application

Telbivudine has been used to explore the mechanisms of telbivudine (LdT) induced creatine kinase (CK) elevation.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Telbivudine is a nucleoside analog that is widely used to treat hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.
Telbivudine is a synthetic molecule containing β-L-configuration. Telbivudine improves the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in response to chronic hepatitis B (CHB). It prevents perinatal transmission and enhances the hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) seroconversion. It is also known to cause side effects such as creatine kinase (CK) elevation and fatal rhabdomyolysis.
