What is PrEP?
PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis) involves taking antiretroviral medications by HIV-negative individuals to reduce the risk of infection. When used correctly, this method is highly effective.
From a medical perspective, PrEP works by maintaining an adequate concentration of the medication in the body. In the event of contact with the HIV virus, its replication is blocked, thereby preventing infection.
