The safety, pharmacokinetics, and antiretroviral activity of lamivudine alone and in combination with zidovudine was studied in pregnant women infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and their neonates. Women received the drugs orally from week 38 of pregnancy to 1 week after delivery. Neonate therapy began 12 h after delivery and continued for 1 week. Both treatment regimens were well-tolerated in women and newborns. Lamivudine and zidovudine pharmacokinetics in pregnant women were similar to those in nonpregnant adults. Lamivudine and zidovudine freely crossed the placenta and were secreted in breast milk. Neonatal lamivudine clearance was about half that in pediatric patients; zidovudine clearance was consistent with previous reports. HIV-1 RNA could be quantified in 17 of the 20 women. At the onset of labor/delivery, mean virus load had decreased by approximately 1.5 log10 copies/mL in both treatment cohorts. Although not definitive for HIV-1 infection status, all neonates had HIV-1 RNA levels below the limit of quantification at birth and at ages 1 and 2 weeks.

FDA Label
Epivir is indicated as part of antiretroviral combination therapy for the treatment of human-immunodeficiency-virus (HIV)-infected adults and children.
Lamivudine Teva Pharma B. V. is indicated as part of antiretroviral combination therapy for the treatment of human-immunodeficiency-virus (HIV)-infected adults and children.
Zeffix is indicated for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B in adults with:
- compensated liver disease with evidence of active viral replication, persistently elevated serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels and histological evidence of active liver inflammation and / or fibrosis. Initiation of lamivudine treatment should only be considered when the use of an alternative antiviral agent with a higher genetic barrier is not available or appropriate;
- decompensated liver disease in combination with a second agent without cross-resistance to lamivudine.
Lamivudine Teva is indicated for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B in adults with:
- compensated liver disease with evidence of active viral replication, persistently elevated serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels and histological evidence of active liver inflammation and / or fibrosis. Initiation of lamivudine treatment should only be considered when the use of an alternative antiviral agent with a higher genetic barrier is not available or appropriate (see in section 5. 1).
Lamivudine is a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) with activity against Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) and hepatitis B (HBV) to disrupt viral DNA synthesis. When phosphorylated, lamivudine can form active metabolites that compete for incorporation into viral DNA. Via DNA incorporation, lamivudine metabolites competitively inhibit the activity of the HIV reverse transcriptase enzyme and act as a chain terminator of DNA synthesis. Due to the lack of a 3'-OH group, incorporated nucleoside analogues prevent the formation of a 5' to 3' phosphodiester linkage that is essential for DNA chain elongation.
Anti-HIV Agents
Agents used to treat AIDS and/or stop the spread of the HIV infection. These do not include drugs used to treat symptoms or opportunistic infections associated with AIDS. (See all compounds classified as Anti-HIV Agents.)
Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors
Inhibitors of reverse transcriptase (RNA-DIRECTED DNA POLYMERASE), an enzyme that synthesizes DNA on an RNA template. (See all compounds classified as Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors.)

Absorption
Lamivudine was rapidly absorbed after oral administration in HIV-infected patients. Absolute bioavailability in 12 adult patients was 86% 16% (mean SD) for the 150-mg tablet and 87% 13% for the oral solution. The peak serum lamivudine concentration (Cmax) was 1.5 0.5 mcg/mL when an oral dose of 2 mg/kg twice a day was given to HIV-1 patients. When given with food, absorption is slower, compared to the fasted state.
Route of Elimination
The majority of lamivudine is eliminated unchanged in urine by active organic cationic secretion. 5.2% 1.4% (mean SD) of the dose was excreted as the trans-sulfoxide metabolite in the urine. Lamivudine is excreted in human breast milk and into the milk of lactating rats.
Volume of Distribution
Apparent volume of distribution, IV administration = 1.3 0.4 L/kg. Volume of distribution was independent of dose and did not correlate with body weight.
Clearance
Renal clearance = 199.7 56.9 mL/min [300 mg oral dose, healthy subjects]
Renal clearance = 280.4 75.2 mL/min [single IV dose, HIV-1-infected patients]
Total clearance = 398.5 69.1 mL/min [HIV-1-infected patients]
Lamivudine crosses the placenta and has been detected in the fetal circulation.

Metabolism of lamivudine is a minor route of elimination. In man, the only known metabolite of lamivudine is the trans-sulfoxide metabolite. This biotransformation is catalyzed by sulfotransferases.
5 to 7 hours (healthy or HBV-infected patients)
Lamivudine is a synthetic nucleoside analogue and is phosphorylated intracellularly to its active 5'-triphosphate metabolite, lamivudine triphosphate (L-TP). This nucleoside analogue is incorporated into viral DNA by HIV reverse transcriptase and HBV polymerase, resulting in DNA chain termination.
Lamivudine enters cells by passive diffusion and is phosphorylated to its active metabolite, lamivudine triphosphate. Lamivudine triphosphate competes with deoxycytidine triphosphate for binding to reverse transcriptase, and incorporation into DNA results in chain termination. Lamivudine has very low affinity for human alpha and omega DNA polymerases, moderate affinity for beta DNA polymerase, and higher affinity for gamma DNA polymerase.

A Lamivudine DMF (Drug Master File) is a document detailing the whole manufacturing process of Lamivudine active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in detail. Different forms of Lamivudine DMFs exist exist since differing nations have different regulations, such as Lamivudine USDMF, ASMF (EDMF), JDMF, CDMF, etc.
A Lamivudine DMF submitted to regulatory agencies in the US is known as a USDMF. Lamivudine USDMF includes data on Lamivudine's chemical properties, information on the facilities and procedures used, and details about packaging and storage. The Lamivudine USDMF is kept confidential to protect the manufacturer’s intellectual property.

The Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA) established the Japan Drug Master File (JDMF), also known as the Master File (MF), to permit Japanese and foreign manufacturers of drug substances, intermediates, excipients, raw materials, and packaging materials (‘Products’) to voluntarily register confidential information about the production and management of their products in Japan.
The Lamivudine Drug Master File in Japan (Lamivudine JDMF) empowers Lamivudine API manufacturers to present comprehensive information (e.g., production methods, data, etc.) to the review authority, i.e., PMDA (Pharmaceuticals & Medical Devices Agency).
PMDA reviews the Lamivudine JDMF during the approval evaluation for pharmaceutical products. At the time of Lamivudine JDMF registration, PMDA checks if the format is accurate, if the necessary items have been included (application), and if data has been attached.

In Korea, the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) is in charge of regulating pharmaceutical products and services.
Pharmaceutical companies submit a Lamivudine Drug Master File in Korea (Lamivudine KDMF) to the MFDS, which includes comprehensive information about the production, processing, facilities, materials, packaging, and testing of Lamivudine. The MFDS reviews the Lamivudine KDMF as part of the drug registration process and uses the information provided in the Lamivudine KDMF to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the drug.
After submitting a Lamivudine KDMF to the MFDS, the registered manufacturer can provide importers or distributors with the registration number without revealing confidential information to Korean business partners. Applicants seeking to register their Lamivudine API can apply through the Korea Drug Master File (KDMF).

A Lamivudine CEP of the European Pharmacopoeia monograph is often referred to as a Lamivudine Certificate of Suitability (COS). The purpose of a Lamivudine CEP is to show that the European Pharmacopoeia monograph adequately controls the purity of Lamivudine EP produced by a given manufacturer. Suppliers of raw materials can prove the suitability of Lamivudine to their clients by showing that a Lamivudine CEP has been issued for it. The manufacturer submits a Lamivudine CEP (COS) as part of the market authorization procedure, and it takes on the role of a Lamivudine CEP holder for the record. Additionally, the data presented in the Lamivudine CEP (COS) is managed confidentially and offers a centralized system acknowledged by numerous nations, exactly like the Lamivudine DMF.
A Lamivudine CEP (COS) is recognised by all 36 nations that make up the European Pharmacopoeia Convention. Lamivudine CEPs may be accepted in nations that are not members of the Ph. Eur. at the discretion of the authorities there.

National Drug Code is a comprehensive database maintained by the FDA that contains information on all drugs marketed in the US. This directory includes information about finished drug products, unfinished drug products, and compounded drug products, including those containing Lamivudine as an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API).
The FDA updates the NDC directory daily. The NDC numbers for Lamivudine API and other APIs are published in this directory by the FDA.
The NDC unfinished drugs database includes product listing information submitted for all unfinished drugs, such as active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), drugs intended for further processing and bulk drug substances for compounding.
Pharmaceutical companies that manufacture Lamivudine as an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) must furnish the FDA with an updated record of all drugs that they produce, prepare, propagate, compound, or process for commercial distribution in the US at their facilities.
The NDC directory also contains data on finished compounded human drug products that contain Lamivudine and are produced by outsourcing facilities. While these outsourcing facilities are not mandated to assign a Lamivudine NDC to their finished compounded human drug products, they may choose to do so.

Lamivudine Active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is produced in GMP-certified manufacturing facility.
GMP stands for Good Manufacturing Practices, which is a system used in the pharmaceutical industry to make sure that goods are regularly produced and monitored in accordance with quality standards. The FDA’s current Good Manufacturing Practices requirements are referred to as cGMP or current GMP which indicates that the company follows the most recent GMP specifications. The World Health Organization (WHO) has its own set of GMP guidelines, called the WHO GMP. Different countries can also set their own guidelines for GMP like China (Chinese GMP) or the EU (EU GMP).
PharmaCompass offers a list of Lamivudine GMP manufacturers, exporters & distributors, which can be sorted by USDMF, JDMF, KDMF, CEP (COS), WC, API price, and more, enabling you to easily find the right Lamivudine GMP manufacturer or Lamivudine GMP API supplier for your needs.
A Lamivudine CoA (Certificate of Analysis) is a formal document that attests to Lamivudine's compliance with Lamivudine specifications and serves as a tool for batch-level quality control.
Lamivudine CoA mostly includes findings from lab analyses of a specific batch. For each Lamivudine CoA document that a company creates, the USFDA specifies specific requirements, such as supplier information, material identification, transportation data, evidence of conformity and signature data.
Lamivudine may be tested according to a variety of international standards, such as European Pharmacopoeia (Lamivudine EP), Lamivudine JP (Japanese Pharmacopeia) and the US Pharmacopoeia (Lamivudine USP).
