Important Information about PEP
- PEP is not a cure for HIV
- It does not protect against future exposure. So you could consider PrEP if you are continuously exposed
- It does not prevent other STIs
- Avoid unprotected sex during treatment
HIV Testing
- Baseline HIV testing is recommended before starting PEP.
- If testing is not immediately available, do not delay treatment; start PEP promptly and test as soon as possible
- Follow-up testing is advised after completion
