hi! i saw this post from  the forum( if you have chances to buy entecavir brand by baraclue in india it is about 100euro (212 indian rupee)per month, the generics are the same and the cost is about 50euro )
where can i buy this? are they available onlie? im from Philippines.
and also i read that tenofovir is more effective than baraclude? I have chronic hepatitis B. I was diagnosed last Dec 2013 so Im taking baraclude for more than 6 mons now. I hope you can help me with this. thank you so much!

Hi, BARACLUDE is the tradename for entecavir, a guanosine nucleoside analogue with selective activity against HBV. So you can take entecavir (entegard), which could be the generic form and hence cheaper. Please continue with therapy. Regards.
