PrEP can reduce the transmission of HIV

Following a trial in London, research has shown that PrEP (pre-exposure Prophylaxis) for HIV can reduce the chance of transmission of HIV in men having sex with men. It involves reliably taking a daily tablet, Truvada, for best results. Before starting PrEP and whilst taking it, it is important to have blood tests to monitor how the medication may affect your body. A review by a doctor is highly recommended to ensure Truvada is working for you and to check your sexual health in general.
