PrEP vs. PEP?

Transcript:

PrEP & PEP

What’s the difference?

Both protect against HIV!

PrEP – Pre-exposure prophylaxis

PrEP provides ongoing protection against HIV.

PrEP is like birth control but for HIV…it’s taken every day.

PEP – Post-exposure prophylaxis

PEP is intended for emergency situations only.

PEP must begin within 72 hours of possible exposure to HIV and be continued for 28 days.

Both require a prescription from a healthcare provider.
