Pregnancy-Lactation
Pregnancy
Human data
Available prospective reported data from the APR shows no increase in the overall risk of major birth defects with first trimester exposure for tenofovir DF compared with US rate for major birth defects
Data from 3 controlled clinical trials in 327 pregnant women with chronic HBV infection did not observe an increased risk of adverse pregnancy related outcomes with tenofovir DF use during the third trimester
Animal data
In animal reproduction studies, no adverse developmental effects were observed when tenofovir DF was administered at doses >14 (TDF) and 2.7 (tenofovir) times those of the recommended daily dose
Lactation
Based on published data, tenofovir shown to be present in human breast milk
Unknown if tenofovir DF affects milk production or has effects on the breastfed child
HIV-infected mothers: Breastfeeding in HIV-1 infected mothers is not recommended owing to potential for HIV-1 transmission
HBV-infected mothers: The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for the drug and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from the drug or from the underlying maternal condition
In a study of 50 HIV-uninfected, breastfeeding women on a tenofovir-containing regimen initiated between 1 and 24 weeks postpartum (median 13 weeks), drug was undetectable in plasma of most infants after 7 days of treatment in mothers
Interactions
Decreased atazanavir concentration with tenofovir unless also co-administered with ritonavir. Increased serum concentration of tenofovir or co-administered drug if taken with drugs that are eliminated by active tubular secretion.
Potentially Fatal: Increased risk of renal impairment with recent or concurrent use of nephrotoxic agents (e.g. aminoglycosides, amphotericin B, foscarnet, ganciclovir, pentamidine, vancomycin, cidofovir or interleukin-2); monitor renal function wkly if unavoidable. Increased didanosine levels and thereby increasing risk of pancreatitis and peripheral neuropathy, with a high treatment failure rate with concurrent use; avoid concurrent use.

Mode of Action
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, a diester prodrug of tenofovir, is a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor. After oral absorption, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate is rapidly converted to tenofovir and then undergo subsequent phosphorylation by cellular enzymes to the active tenofovir diphosphate, which inhibits the activity of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase.
