Sometimes two or three of these meds will be in a single pill. Any 3-drug ART combination can be used as PEP so long as it does not contain abacavir or an NNRTI.

   Who should take Pep?

   • PrEP should be offered to anyone who uses PEP. PEP is used after an exposure. It is used when prevention was not possible. If you are finding that you require regular courses of PEP, consider PrEP. PrEP is taken daily or event-based and is used BEFORE exposure. It is more effective than PEP and uses fewer drugs so will cause fewer side effects.
