WHAT IS PrEP?
PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) is a medication that helps prevent HIV. It comes as a daily pill or a long-acting injectable. When taken as prescribed, PrEP is up to 99% effective at preventing HIV.
TAKE PrEP YOUR WAY
There’s more than one way to take PrEP. A provider can help you choose what works best for your body and your life.
DAILY PILL
- Taken once a day
- Also available as 2-1-1 (on-demand) dosing for some people
- Easy to stop or switch if needed
INJECTABLE PrEP
- One shot every 2 months or every 6 months, depending on the medication
- No daily pill to remember
- Requires in-person visits for injections
PrEP is safe and has minimal side effects for most people. If you do have side effects, your provider will work with you to adjust or change options.
