Description:PrEP is short for pre-exposure prophylaxis. It is the use of antiretroviral medication to prevent HIV infection among people who could be exposed to HIV through sex or injection drug use. PrEP reduces the risk of getting HIV from sex by up to 99% and from injection drug use by at least 74%.
In 2021, the US Preventive Services Task Force issued a graded recommendation to inform all sexually active adults and adolescents about PrEP (grade IIIB).
