Hello! I started PEP yesterday and I’m afraid it can cause major problems to kidneys, liver or bone density. It must be taken for 28 days. It’s called Combivir in english which consists of one pill of AZT 300mg/3TC 150 mg twice a day. Can it damage my kidneys, liver or bones?
Hi i heard that pep in some new studies is only effective within 36 hours by decreasing risk by 80%. Thats why in new york they dont pescribe it after 36 hours . However i got exposed and took it 40 hours after the incident what are the chances there ?

Can someone explain me; im going to have a sex with sex worker next week, and I asked her can we have sex without condom, she said if we both take pep medicine we can do sex without condom. Question is , are we going to take medicine before sex or after and how long?
Hi Miguel, thanks for reaching out! PEP is not just Truvada. PEP is a cocktail method and all studies indicate that PEP is most effective only when taken within 72 hours of an exposure to HIV. PEP prescriptions are got given after clients fall out of that 72-hour window period. Please call our team at 202-797-4439 for additional questions and support.
Hi Pawan, PEP is effective in preventing HIV infection when it’s taken correctly, but it’s not 100% effective. The sooner you start PEP after a possible HIV exposure, the better.

I juat started at the 60 hour mark as I used no condom twice with a woman that didn't know her status but thought she was good becasue "she didnt look like she had aids" I swear thats what she said. Not saying she even has it but what an ignorant statement. Just scared me.
