&lt;p&gt;PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis) is a highly effective medication that helps prevent HIV infection in high-risk individuals. By taking it daily, you can reduce your chances of contracting HIV by up to 99%.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since 2013, PrEP has been available as a once-daily pill containing tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and emtricitabine, with options like TRUVADA, TENO-EM, TENOF-EM, TAVIN-EM, and RICOVIR-EM. You can choose the most affordable option available to you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In 2019, a new version of PrEP was approved, using Tenofovir Alafenamide and Emtricitabine. It&amp;rsquo;s safer for your kidneys and bone marrow, with fewer side effects. Brands for this new PrEP include DESCOVY, TAFERO-EM, TAFICITA, and generic versions of Tenofovir Alafenamide/Emtricitabine.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When taken correctly, PrEP reduces the risk of HIV transmission during sex by up to 99%, allowing you to enjoy sex with less worry about HIV.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Does PrEP Work?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div id=&quot;cc-m-14430383125&quot; class=&quot;j-module n j-text &quot;&gt;&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis) is up to 99% effective at preventing HIV through sexual contact when taken correctly. For people who inject drugs, PrEP can reduce HIV risk by up to 70%.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PrEP works by creating a barrier in the body that prevents HIV from causing an infection. It&#39;s recommended for individuals at higher risk, such as those with HIV-positive partners or those engaging in high-risk behaviors.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Before starting PrEP, you must be HIV-negative, so an HIV test is done during your initial consultation. Once confirmed negative, you&#39;ll receive a prescription to begin protecting yourself.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Unlike HIV treatment, PrEP is used to prevent HIV, and you don&#39;t need to take it for life. You can use it for as long as you need extra protection&amp;mdash;whether for weeks, months, or years, especially if you plan to have unprotected sex.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For even greater protection, combining PrEP with condoms and DOXYPEP reduces the risk of STDs or STIs to very low levels. However, PrEP doesn&#39;t protect against all STDs, so regular testing for HIV and other STDs is still important. While PrEP helps manage HIV risk, remember that HIV weakens your immune system, making you more vulnerable to other infections.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We can run a blood test to check the correct drugs are present in your body.&amp;nbsp;You need to have taken a pill in the 24 hours before the test. &amp;nbsp;Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is a branch of clinical chemistry and clinical pharmacology that specialises in the measurement of medication concentrations in blood.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Can I Use PrEP If My Partner is HIV Positive and I&#39;m HIV Negative?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yes, you can use PrEP to protect yourself from HIV if your partner is HIV positive and you&#39;re HIV negative. It&#39;s highly recommended for extra protection, especially if your partner is still infectious.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If your partner isn&#39;t on HIV treatment or hasn&#39;t reached an undetectable viral load, PrEP can reduce your risk of HIV by up to 99%.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If your partner is on effective HIV treatment with an undetectable viral load, the risk of transmission is almost zero. In this case, you may not need PrEP, but it&#39;s always best to consult a healthcare provider for advice.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Do I Still Need to Use Condoms If I Take PrEP?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yes, it&#39;s highly recommended to use condoms even if you&#39;re on PrEP. While PrEP is effective at preventing HIV, it doesn&#39;t protect against other STDs like syphilis, gonorrhea, or chlamydia. Condoms protect against a wide range of STDs that PrEP doesn&#39;t cover. Combining PrEP, condoms, and DOXYPEP (doxycycline for post-exposure prophylaxis) offers the best protection for your sexual health.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Long Does PrEP Take to Become Effective?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;et_pb_toggle_content clearfix&quot;&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For daily PrEP to be effective in preventing HIV, it needs to build up in the body, which takes about 7 days for anal sex. After that, you need to take it daily to maintain its effectiveness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you&#39;re using PrEP On Demand, it&#39;s important to follow the &#39;2-1-1&#39; dosing plan for it to work. Note that PrEP On Demand is only effective for anal sex, while daily PrEP provides protection for other activities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Are the Possible Side Effects of PrEP?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div class=&quot;et_pb_toggle_content clearfix&quot;&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the first few weeks of taking daily PrEP, some people may experience headaches, dizziness, fatigue, or stomach issues like nausea, diarrhea, and cramps. These side effects usually go away as your body adjusts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PrEP can affect kidney function in a small number of people, so kidney tests may be part of your regular check-ups. If you&#39;re worried about side effects or experiencing them, talk to your doctor during your appointments.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Should I Do If I Have Side Effects from PrEP?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Most people tolerate PrEP well, but some may experience side effects as their body adjusts. If this happens, you can take your dose before bedtime to sleep through the side effects. If the side effects are severe or last longer than a month, contact your healthcare provider right away.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Does PrEP Have Long-Term Side Effects?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PrEP is not believed to have long-term side effects, but it&#39;s important to work with your doctor to monitor for any issues. In rare cases, some people may experience reduced kidney or liver function. Your doctor will do an initial test, and if needed, will continue to monitor your kidney and liver function with regular blood tests.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I Take Medication for Other Conditions. Can I Still Use PrEP?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PrEP has been shown not to interact with most medications. However, it&amp;rsquo;s best to inform your doctor or pharmacist that you&amp;rsquo;re taking PrEP before being prescribed other medications.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I Drink Alcohol and/or Use Recreational Drugs. Can I Still Use PrEP?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Research has shown that PrEP does not interact with alcohol or recreational drugs. However, keep in mind that being under the influence of alcohol or recreational drugs may cause you to miss your scheduled doses, affecting your adherence and decreasing the effectiveness of your treatment.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Do I Maintain My Adherence?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PrEP should ideally be taken at the same time every day to maintain a steady level of the medication in your body. To achieve this, make taking your pills a habitual action. Use alarms or reminders, and bring a spare dose with you for when you&amp;rsquo;re not at home.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Do I Do I Forget to Take My PrEP?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you miss a dose of daily PrEP, just continue taking it at your usual time. A missed dose occasionally will have minimal impact on PrEP&amp;rsquo;s effectiveness. There is no need to take two doses to make up for the missed one. If you&amp;rsquo;re taking PrEP On Demand, it&amp;rsquo;s extremely important that you do not miss any doses. Failure to adhere to the 2-1-1 plan will reduce its effectiveness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I&#39;m Going to Be Traveling. When Should I Take My Pills When I&#39;m at My Destination?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PrEP can be taken at the same time as you would at home, regardless of the time zone difference.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Can I Take My Pills with Me When I&#39;m Traveling?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Like any prescription medication for personal use, PrEP can be brought along when you travel. Keep the pills stored in their original, labeled container, and carry a prescription or doctor&amp;rsquo;s letter with you in case of inspection by customs. Make sure you bring enough for the entire trip, plus some extras in case of delays.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Steps Do I Need to Take to Access PrEP?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div class=&quot;et_pb_toggle_content clearfix&quot;&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Before you can obtain &lt;strong&gt;PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis)&lt;/strong&gt;, you need to be assessed for suitability. This assessment involves a few simple steps at the clinic:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Step 1: Get Tested&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Visit a sexual health clinic that prescribes PrEP for a &lt;strong&gt;blood test&lt;/strong&gt;. The tests will screen for:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HIV&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Liver function&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kidney function&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You will receive your results online within one day.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Step 2: Discuss Your Results&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Your doctor or counselor will review your test results with you to determine if you are eligible for PrEP.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Step 3: Receive Your Prescription&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you qualify for PrEP, you will receive a prescription. At &lt;strong&gt;PULSE CLINIC&lt;/strong&gt; locations throughout Thailand, you can obtain up to &lt;strong&gt;12 bottles of PrEP&lt;/strong&gt; per visit.&lt;/p&gt;
