Lamivudine

A nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, also known as 3TC, approved in the United States in 1995: it is used against HIV, in combination with other antiretrovirals, and against chronic hepatitis B. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities, labelled standards, nitrosamines and other impurities.

Did you know?It was created between 1988 and 1989 in Montreal, Canada, through the work of Bernard Belleau and Paul Nguyen-Ba; the code 3TC recalls its chemical name 3'-thiacytidine, because a sulphur atom sits in the sugar ring.
