Daily PrEP is a once-daily pill that helps reduce the risk of HIV infection when taken consistently. It’s a safe, effective option for many people seeking long-term HIV prevention support.
Injectable PrEP offers long-lasting HIV prevention through routine injections administered every two or six months. This option may be ideal for individuals who prefer not to take a daily pill.
PrEP is a treatment that should be used by HIV-negative people, in consultation with their health care provider, who may run the risk of being exposed to an HIV infection.
PrEP is available by prescription only and must be used under the supervision of a health care provider. All of the providers at Circle Care Center have experience prescribing PrEP and consulting with interested patients to explore if the treatment is right for them.
The staff at Circle Care Center’s onsite Pharmacy are well versed in helping patients to navigate the financial assistance that exists to pay for this medication. While PrEP is covered by most private insurance plans and state Medicaid programs, assistance exists to cover co-pays or other out-of-pocket expenses associated with the treatment.
48 hours of possible HIV exposure, though the treatment may be started within 72 hours of exposure. If you believe you may have been exposed to an HIV infection, you should access PEP treatment as soon as possible.
Possible sources of exposure:
– Unprotected vaginal or anal sex with someone who is HIV-positive or someone whose status you do not know.
– Sharing needles for drug use, hormone injections, or tattooing with someone who is HIV-positive or someone whose status you do not know.
We’re here to support you with expert treatment and compassionate care.
