&lt;h2 class=&quot;p1&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Frequently Asked Questions About Apretude Injectable PrEP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;p3&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is Apretude?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p4&quot;&gt;Apretude is a long-lasting shot used to help stop HIV infection. It has a medicine called cabotegravir and is given as a shot in the muscle instead of a daily pill.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;p3&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How does Apretude prevent HIV?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p4&quot;&gt;Apretude stops HIV from growing in your body if you are exposed to it. When taken as directed, the shot keeps enough medicine in your body between shots to lower the chance of getting HIV.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;p3&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How often do I need Apretude shots?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p4&quot;&gt;After the first few shots, you get one every two months. This means you only need six shots a year instead of taking a pill every day.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;p3&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Who can use Apretude?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p4&quot;&gt;Apretude might be good for people who:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class=&quot;ul1&quot;&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li4&quot;&gt;Have trouble taking daily pills&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li4&quot;&gt;Want a long-lasting way to prevent HIV&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li4&quot;&gt;Prefer a more private method&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li4&quot;&gt;You need to talk to a doctor to see if Apretude is right for you.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;p3&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Is Apretude as good as daily pills?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p4&quot;&gt;Studies show Apretude works very well to prevent HIV if you get the shots on time. &lt;strong&gt;It might even be better&lt;/strong&gt; because injections helps lower the risk of missing daily pills.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;p3&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Do I need an HIV test before starting Apretude?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p4&quot;&gt;Yes. You need an HIV test before starting and before each shot. This makes sure Apretude is used safely for you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;p3&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What are the side effects of Apretude?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p4&quot;&gt;Common side effects might include pain, swelling, or redness where the shot is given. Some people might have a headache, fever, or feel tired. Most side effects are mild and go away on their own.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;p3&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Can I change from PrEP pills to Apretude?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p4&quot;&gt;Yes, many people switch from daily pills to Apretude. A healthcare provider will help you make the switch to keep you protected from HIV.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;p3&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Is Apretude good for people who travel a lot?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p4&quot;&gt;Yes. Apretude is often chosen by people who travel or have busy lives because you don&amp;rsquo;t need to carry or remember daily pills.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;p3&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Does Apretude protect against other STDs?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p4&quot;&gt;No. Apretude only helps prevent HIV. It does not protect against other sexually transmitted infections (STIs), so you should still get regular tests and use condoms.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h3 class=&quot;p3&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How do I start getting Apretude shots?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p4&quot;&gt;To start, you need to talk to a doctor, get an HIV test, and see if Apretude is right for you. Then, the doctor will set up your shot appointments.&lt;/p&gt;
