PrEP stands for Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis and is currently the best method available to take control of your HIV status. It’s a daily medication taken by HIV-negative individuals that can lower your chances of getting HIV by 99%. Our primary focus for our program is towards gay & bisexual men. They are at the highest risk of contracting HIV and make up 70% of all new diagnoses in the United States.
After your initial appointment, you will need to return to our HELP Clinics for follow up services every three months. Our clinical staff will conduct bloodwork, STD tests and monitor any side effects you may be experiencing which are rare & typically minor.
If you think you are at risk of contracting HIV, ask us about getting on PrEP.
We are here to help!
