Fact Sheet for Health Care Providers HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP)
Description

What is HIV PrEP?
- PrEP is a once-daily pill that can reduce your patient’s HIV risk by over 90% when taken daily.
- PrEP is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and was approved in 2012 by the FDA as one strategy for HIV risk reduction among adults at substantial risk for HIV.
- PrEP is a combination of two anti-retroviral agents (TRUVADA; tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/300mg and emtricitabine/200mg) which have been used, at higher dosages and in combination with other drugs, for the treatment of active HIV infection for a decade.
- PrEP is highly safe and well-tolerated. About 10% of PrEP users experience a “start-up” syndrome characterized by nausea and fatigue which typically resolves in 3-4 weeks. There is a risk of decreased renal function or bone mineral density, so patients on PrEP are periodically monitored for serum creatinine levels and a baseline bone density scan might be considered for patients with a history of, or at risk for osteoporosis.
