Abstract: The aim of antiviral therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis B is for a long-term to restrain or eliminate hepatitis B virus. Although the nucleos(t)ide analogues have excellent antiviral efficacy,but the therapy has the risk of rhabdomyolysis,lactic acidosis,nephrotoxicity and Fanconi syndrome. These adverse reactions are related to NAs -related mitochondrial toxicity. In this review,the safety of NAs in the treatment of patients with chronic hepatitis B will be discussed.

Key words: Hepatitis B, Nucleos(t)ide analogues, Rhabdomyolysis, Lactic acidosis, Nephrotoxicity, Fanconi syndrome
