This study aims to evaluate the effect of long-term use of Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) on bone density in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Tenofovir is a widely used antiviral medication for the treatment of HBV. While it is generally well tolerated, some studies have reported potential adverse effects on bone mineral density, particularly with long-term use. The objective of this research is to assess whether extended TDF therapy is associated with reduced bone density or increased risk of osteopenia or osteoporosis in adult patients with chronic HBV infection. The study will involve clinical evaluation and radiological assessment of bone health using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scans, as well as relevant biochemical markers. This investigation will provide important data on the long-term safety profile of Tenofovir in relation to bone health and help guide future clinical decisions for the management of chronic hepatitis B.

Nucleot(s)ide is an antiviral drug that can reduce the number of viruses, reduce the risk of HCC, regress hepatic fibrosis and reduce death from Hepatitis B viral infection. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is one of nucleotide analogue that is recommended to treated patients with Hepatitis B viral infection. However, long-term TDF therapy may have side effects especially nephrotoxicity and bone toxicity. Previous studies in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients who treated with TDF containing regimen antiretroviral therapy, in vitamin D supplement group had a statistic significance of low parathyroid hormone level and better in bone mineral density regardless of initial vitamin D level. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to evaluate the vitamin D and calcium supplement to patients with hepatitis B who have taken TDF, in parathyroid hormone level, bone mineral density, renal function and renal phosphate loss compared to patients who have no vitamin D and calcium supplement.
