Possible exposure in the last 72 hours? Order PEP Now →
If you have had a possible HIV exposure in Kwara, the single most important thing to know is that post-exposure prophylaxis works, but only if you start it within 72 hours. The first 24 hours matter most, so if your exposure was recent, message us now and begin the process. You can read the rest while your PEP is on its way.
Kwara is anchored by Ilorin, with Offa, Jebba, Omu-Aran and Patigi as significant towns spread across the state. HIV care is concentrated around the capital, which leaves many of these towns a long trip from the nearest clinic. Delivery closes that gap and brings a full PEP course to you wherever you are.
Our team has supported people across Nigeria through the time-critical first hours after an exposure, so we know the questions you are likely facing right now and we will not waste your time.
Looking for PEP in Ilorin?
If you are searching for PEP in Ilorin, HIV emergency treatment in Ilorin, post-exposure prophylaxis near you, or emergency HIV drugs in Kwara state, the same 72-hour rule applies to all of them. The fastest option is whichever route gets your first dose started earliest. For most people that means ordering on WhatsApp and starting at home, rather than waiting to be seen at a clinic. Within Kwara, delivery to Ilorin and the main towns takes roughly 3 to 5 hours, and we reach anywhere else in the state within 24 hours at the latest.
Zivoko delivers PEP across Kwara
Within Kwara, Zivoko delivers to Ilorin and the major towns in roughly 3 to 5 hours, and within 24 hours anywhere else in the state. We have people on the ground across the country, not couriers driving in from far away, so wherever you are, you are covered. Exact timing depends on your location, and we confirm it with you before dispatch. No hospital queue, no waiting room. You need an HIV test before you start, unless you already know you are negative, and we can add a rapid test kit to your order (sold separately, subject to availability).
Here is how it works:
- Message us on WhatsApp. Tell us when the exposure happened. That timing matters most.
- Quick eligibility check. Our team confirms PEP is appropriate and answers your questions, without judgement.
- We dispatch your 28-day course in plain packaging to your address in Kwara. You need an HIV test before you start, unless you already know you are negative: we can add a rapid test kit to your order (sold separately, subject to availability).
- Full support for 28 days, including dosing guidance, side effect help, and follow-up testing advice.
PEP delivery to Offa, Jebba, Omu-Aran and Patigi
We do not just cover the capital. These are among the towns in Kwara state we reach most often, all within our 24-hour nationwide guarantee:
PEP in Offa
A major commercial town in southern Kwara. We reach Offa within 24 hours, dispatched as soon as your order is confirmed.
PEP in Jebba
A historic river town on the Niger. Delivery to Jebba runs on the same 24-hour guarantee as the rest of the state.
PEP in Omu-Aran
Home to Landmark University. We deliver here within 24 hours, with exact timing confirmed before dispatch.
PEP in Patigi
A key town in northern Kwara. We cover Patigi on the same terms as every other town in the state, inside our 24-hour window.
Are you eligible for PEP?
To make sure PEP is used safely, we provide it to people who genuinely need it. You are likely eligible if:
- You have had a possible HIV exposure in the last 72 hours, such as unprotected sex, a condom breakage, sexual assault, or contact with blood that may be infected.
- You are currently HIV-negative, or you have never tested positive.
- You understand that PEP must be taken every day for 28 days to work.
If you are not sure whether your situation qualifies, message us anyway, or use our HIV risk checker to assess your exposure in a couple of minutes.
Where to get PEP in Kwara
Zivoko is the fastest and most private route, but here is the fuller picture of where PEP can be found in Kwara.
Zivoko delivery
Within Kwara, Zivoko delivers to Ilorin and the major towns in roughly 3 to 5 hours, and within 24 hours anywhere else in the state, including Offa, Jebba, Omu-Aran and Patigi. You need an HIV test before starting, and we can add a rapid test kit to your order (sold separately, subject to availability). The packaging is plain, and the whole process runs over WhatsApp.
Teaching and federal hospitals in Ilorin
The University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital is the main centre for HIV care in the state and the most reliable place to ask for PEP. General hospitals in Offa and Omu-Aran may also offer it.
PEP at these centres is often free or subsidised under the national HIV programme. The trade-off is the process: getting through the emergency unit or HIV clinic, assessment, and dispensing can take several hours, and the clinic may keep weekday hours only.
General hospitals and private clinics
Some general hospitals and private clinics elsewhere in Kwara may offer PEP, but availability is genuinely uneven. We are not going to list specific facilities we cannot vouch for, because sending you to one that has no stock could cost you hours you do not have.
If you do try a local facility, call ahead first and confirm they have PEP in stock before you travel.
Follow-up testing and next steps
After you finish your 28-day course, you will need an HIV test at four to six weeks and again at three months from the original exposure, because the result is only conclusive at that point. Private laboratories with branches in the larger Nigerian cities, such as Lancet and PathCare, offer this testing, and the teaching hospital in Ilorin can also test.
During your 28 days, it helps to know what to expect. Our guides on PEP side effects and what to do if you miss a dose walk you through the course, and what happens after PEP covers the testing timeline in full.
If your circumstances mean HIV exposure could happen again, ask us about moving to PrEP after your course.
Wherever you are in Kwara, you are covered
PEP is a race against a 72-hour clock. Do not spend those hours wondering which hospital has stock. Message Zivoko now and we will get PEP moving to you anywhere in Kwara.

Can I get PEP in Ilorin today?
Yes. Within Kwara, delivery to Ilorin and the main towns takes roughly 3 to 5 hours, and we reach anywhere else in the state within 24 hours at the latest. The 72-hour rule applies, so the earlier you message us, the better.
Do you deliver PEP to Offa, Jebba, Omu-Aran and Patigi?
Yes. We cover every town in Kwara state, not just Ilorin. Offa, Jebba, Omu-Aran and Patigi are all within our 24-hour nationwide guarantee, and we confirm exact timing with you before dispatch.
Can I get PEP after a condom broke in Kwara?
Yes, a condom breakage with a partner whose status you do not know is one of the most common and valid reasons to start PEP. If it happened in the last 72 hours, treat it as urgent and message us, or use our HIV risk checker first if you want to assess the risk.
What happens if I start PEP after 72 hours?
PEP is very unlikely to work once more than 72 hours have passed, because the virus may already have established itself. It is no longer the recommended option at that point. If you are past the window, contact us anyway and we will talk you through HIV testing and, where appropriate, ongoing prevention with PrEP.
Can students get PEP in Kwara?
Yes. Students and young people are among the people we support most often, and there is no age barrier to needing PEP. The process is private, the packaging is plain, and you do not have to share your name if you would rather not.
