🛡️ PrEP or PEP?
Know the Difference. Protect Yourself.
PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis) is for people who are HIV-negative and want to prevent HIV before they may be exposed. When taken as prescribed, PrEP is highly effective at preventing HIV. PrEP is wonderful for husband and wife where one person has HIV and the other is HIV negative (discordant couples).
PEP (Post-Exposure Prophylaxis) is an emergency medication taken after possible exposure to HIV. It must be started within 72 hours and taken for 28 days.
Remember:
âś… PrEP = Before exposure
✅ PEP = After possible exposure (within 72 hours) Knowing your options can help you make informed decisions about your health. 📍
Talk to a healthcare provider to find out if PrEP or PEP is right for you.
Protect yourself.
Know your status.
End the stigma.
