Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP), is the use of anti-HIV medications to keep HIV negative people from becoming infected. Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis is approved by the FDA and has been shown to be safe and effective at preventing HIV infection. Daily Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis reduces the risk of getting HIV from sex by more than 90%. Among people who inject drugs, it reduces the risk by more than 70%. Your risk of getting HIV from sex can be even lower if you combine Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis with condoms and other prevention methods.
