PREP IS NOW ON THE PBS
PrEP (Pre-exposure prophylaxis) is a medications used to prevent the acquisition of HIV. It is very effective and is now subsidised under the PBS at your local pharmacy.
PrEP has been widely taken up in men who have sex with men (MSM), but it is also recommended for women who may be at high risk of acquiring HIV. An example of this includes a woman who has a partner who has HIV and is either not on treatment or has a detectable viral load. PrEP is also useful for the HIV negative partner when trying to conceive naturally.
Please make an appointment to talk further about PrEP and see if you are suitable to start.
