What Is PrEP & PEP for HIV Prevention
PrEP and PEP provide effective protection by reducing the risk of HIV infection before or after potential exposure, supporting safer and healthier living. PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis) is a daily oral medication taken before potential exposure to significantly reduce the risk of HIV infection. PEP (Post-Exposure Prophylaxis) is a 28-day course of medication initiated after a high-risk exposure to help prevent HIV infection. Both options are evidence-based preventive approaches prescribed under medical supervision to ensure safety and effectiveness.
