Early PreventionÂ
It is crucial for public health as it reduces the transmission of infections within communities. Controlling the spread of STDs helps prevent outbreaks and reduces the burden on healthcare systems.
Screening
The early detection of infections enables prompt treatment and reduces the risk of complications.
Long-term therapy
Long-term treatment helps control the infection, prevent symptoms, and reduce the risk of complications.
What is PREP?
PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) is a medicine that reduces your chances of getting HIV from sex or injection drug use. When taken as prescribed, PrEP is highly effective for preventing HIV. Ask us for more information!
What is PEP?
Talk right away (within 72 hours) to your health care provider, an emergency room doctor, or an urgent care provider about PEP if you think you’ve recently been exposed to HIV during sex, through sharing needles or other equipment to inject drugs, or if you’ve been sexually assaulted. The sooner you start PEP, the better. Every hour counts. If you’re prescribed PEP, you must take it daily for 28 days.
