Efficacy claim

edit

"manufacturer claims that it is more efficacious than previous agents used to treat hepatitis B (lamivudine and adefovir)"

It isn't so much a claim, which implies that it isn't based on evidence, as a result of trials. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.103.168.8 (talk) 01:20, 15 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Task Tracking - Group 12

edit

For our page on Entecavir, our group wanted to focus on lengthening several of the existing sections (Tu + everyone) and curate our page afterwards by rearranging the order. As the current introduction is sparse, we wanted to provide a 3-paragraph lead, and add more information to the "Medical Uses" (Ashley/Wilson) and "Adverse Effects" (Ana) sections, and then plump up the "Mechanism of Action" as a group. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ashleyjkim (talkcontribs) 05:13, 3 November 2016 (UTC)Reply
