PEP, post-exposure prophylaxis, is a medication meant to prevent or control the spread of an infection or disease. PEP for HIV is a prescription containing two medicines that are taken within 72 hours after a possible HIV exposure to prevent HIV infection. An exposure can occur during sexual activity, sharing of needles, or occupational if working in a facility that handles the virus.

You're so welcome! It’s critical to help people know what is out there & hopefully it has a snowball effect where they can share that knowledge with their circle.

I know you probably won't see this comment but please explain if you do: assuming pep locks away the infected t cells, for a month as you said, what exactly prevents the virus from replicating post-28 days? Does the virus lock them away so they die / expel from the system? Or? Because it doesn't make much sense to me. Cheers.
@DanielD19951214
@DanielD19951214 3 месяца назад
If your immune system works as intended, it kills all traces of the virus in the next few days, as it would do with any other type of virus. So, if pep works, after 28 days there’s no HIV virus to replicate.

It stops the virus from replicating & attaching to the cells they eventually die off without a host & the medicine kills them

Should it be after meal or before meal?
@ScientistSwanda
@ScientistSwanda 8 месяцев назад
Based on the medication data sheet there is not a requirement. However, since nausea/stomach pain can be a symptom of the medication, taking it after a meal can help reduce that side effect in some people.

Should I take my Descovy now since I am in that 72 hour window? But then I worry that my at home tests won’t be accurate. I’m so scared I don’t know what to do.

*Thanks* I need help with this question. I had a (protected) sex with a sex worker (I don’t know if she’s HIV positive) but out of caution, I took PEP less than 24 hours of that sex. But I missed one day (the seventh day) and I took the 8th day pill earlier (so 48 hours) didn’t lapsed. Should I continue or it’s bust??? …. And what about scheduling? Should I take it everyday on the same hour, or being late for 5 hours or some times earlier by two means it became useless??? (I started taking it at 3PM, then 1PM, than some days at 8PM. When I missed that one day, I took it 6AM.

Today I completed my 28 days of pep ( tenofovir/emtracitabine/doultegravir) . I did not get any hiv symptoms in fact I did not get any std symptoms in this past month . Talking about the exposure, I used condom while having sex with a prostitute but her period blood accidentally slipped inside the condom . I'm very depressed although I've completed my pep regime , I'm stressed what are the chances ill still be tested positive for hiv . Did my pep regime work ? ( Note:- few days I had the medicine 1 hour or 2 hour late than usual timing , would it effect my pep effectiveness) . Thanks in advance whoever replies . Sorry for my weak Englis
