protease inhibitor

Good afternoon. There is a double-acting drugs - lamivudine, emtricitabine, tenofovir. This is known. Are there any similar action in the protease inhibitor, such as Kaletra (lopinavir) for example?
Have you ever thought about that?
I read - sometimes laugh. Simvastatin, vitamin D, which the Chinese poeben, mythical new drugs, masturbation with measurements of the level of HBsAg, and other nonsense....

I'm not ashamed - rather funny. I can offer
conduct a new experiment - measuring the level of HBsAg in response to the mercy of "lice with honey," and all of a sudden?

But if without laughing, I propose to reflect at leisure, there is some anti-HIV drugs, protease inhibitors, a similar effect on HBV, because they act at an earlier stage of virus replication than tenofovir and the like.

sorry but the drugs you menthion are non sense, they can t clear hbv because they have no effect on hbsag secretion which is the marker of immune suppression/immune response and of course the only marker of hbv clearance

lamivudine is not used anymore because worsen hbv infection, a worldwide ban has been proposed

the only hbv cure available is sequential treatment by tenofovir for 3-5 years and then peginterferon add on with 90% response, 50% hbsag clearance by 48weeks

maybe rep9ac plus entecavir or tenofovir plus peginterferon will cure with higher rates
