&lt;h2 class=&quot;p1&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is PrEP?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PrEP, or pre-exposure prophylaxis, is a medication given to non-HIV-positive individuals to prevent HIV acquisition. It blocks HIV entry and spread, reducing the risk of HIV transmission through sexual activity or drug use.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-health.org/Files/PrEP/prep-info-02.jpg&quot; width=&quot;500&quot; height=&quot;500&quot; /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Well Does PrEP Work?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p1&quot;&gt;PrEP, a highly effective HIV prevention tool, reduces the risk of HIV transmission by 99% for anal sex and 74% for injecting drugs. Maximum protection is achieved after 7 days for anal sex and 21 days for vaginal sex.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-health.org/Files/PrEP/prep-info-01-2.jpg&quot; width=&quot;500&quot; height=&quot;500&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How to Take PrEP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p1&quot;&gt;The US &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.uspreventiveservicestaskforce.org/uspstf/recommendation/prevention-of-human-immunodeficiency-virus-hiv-infection-pre-exposure-prophylaxis&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Clinical Practice Guideline (2013)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and Thailand&amp;rsquo;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.thaiaidssociety.org/index.php?option=com_content&amp;amp;view=article&amp;amp;id=79&amp;amp;Itemid=86&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HIV prevention guidelines (2014)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; both say that taking PrEP every day can help you stay safe from HIV. We&amp;rsquo;re following these guidelines because two European studies showed that taking PrEP daily can cut your risk of getting HIV by 86%.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p1&quot; style=&quot;padding-left: 30px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(15)00056-2/fulltext&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PROUD &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Study 1&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;: Daily Dose&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;In this study, people took a pill called TDF/FTC every day. None of them got HIV during the study! This is the recommended way to take PrEP. Most doctor will recommend this.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p1&quot; style=&quot;padding-left: 30px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/nejmoa1506273&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;IPERGAY &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Study 2: On&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;-Demand&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;In this study, people took two pills called TDF/FTC between 2 and 24 hours before sex. Then, they took one pill every day for 2 days after that. This means&amp;nbsp;you take two pills between 2 and 24 hours before sex, one pill 24 hours after, and one pill 24 hours after that. The study suggested that you&amp;rsquo;ll get the same protection as taking PrEP every day. This isn&amp;rsquo;t recommended for vaginal sex, and it&amp;rsquo;s not good for gay men who have limited sex because they might not take their pills.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-health.org/Files/PrEP/PrEP%20on%20demand%20new.png&quot; width=&quot;800&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Who Should Use PrEP?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PrEP is generally safe for adults and teens over 16 without HIV, but not for those under 12, pregnant, breastfeeding, or with certain health conditions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p1&quot;&gt;PrEP may be beneficial for those at risk of HIV exposure, including individuals with HIV-positive partners, multiple partners, unknown HIV status partners, injecting drug users, and sex industry workers. HIV testing is crucial before starting PrEP to prevent the virus from becoming resistant.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-health.org/Files/PrEP/prep-info-03.jpg&quot; width=&quot;500&quot; height=&quot;500&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Is PrEP the Same with PEP?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p1&quot;&gt;PrEP is a daily medication for high-risk individuals to prevent HIV infection, while PEP is an emergency medication taken within 72 hours of exposure to prevent HIV from establishing infection.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p1&quot;&gt;PrEP is like a shield that protects you from HIV &lt;strong&gt;before&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;you even get exposed. On&lt;/strong&gt; the other hand, PEP is like a backup plan for those who are not on PrEP and need extra protection after exposure.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-health.org/Files/PrEP/prep-info-05.jpg&quot; width=&quot;500&quot; height=&quot;500&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
