Have you heard about PrEP?

​

People living with HIV on effective treatment can't pass it on to a partner. PrEP, which stands for pre-exposure prophylaxis, can help prevent HIV. It involves taking a prescription pill on a regular basis (every day for most people).

​

​

It works!

It is extremely rare for a person who uses PrEP correctly to get HIV.

​

It's safe!

Most people don't experience side effects. Those who experience side effects usually report they are mild and last a few days to weeks.

​

It's often covered!

Most public and some private drug plans help cover the cost of PrEP.

​

It's for anyone at risk for HIV!

PrEP can be used by people of all genders and sexual orientations.
