Vemlidy (Tenofovir Alafenamide) in the UK

General Discussion

Hi all,

Does anyone know whether Vemlidy (Tenofovir alafenamide 25mg) tablets are available on prescription in the UK? I am not a UK citizen and I am receiving TAF treatment in my country. I might stay in the UK for extended period of time in near future but I read online somewhere that Vemlidy is not authorised in the UK and what you can get instead are Entecavir or Tenofovir Disoproxil for CHB. It would be concerning if I have to change my treatment.

Cheers,
Wataru

Hi @wataru,

Here is a link I found on the subject. I hope this helps you; if not, then go ahead and feel free to post again and elaborate further and hopefully some of our UK folks can pitch in.

Good luck!

Hi @PuallyHBV ,

Thank you for the link - it is very useful! It seems that TAF is not available in the UK and TDF is likely to be given instead!

Cheers,
