&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Is HIV PrEP?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Pre-exposure prophylaxis or PrEP is a type of medication that, when taken as prescribed, can prevent HIV infection. This medication is only suitable for those who do not have HIV but are at higher risk of HIV infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;PrEP helps to reduce the risk of contracting HIV.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;At the moment, two medications have been approved for PrEP. When taken regularly, they are both effective at reducing the risk of transmission of HIV.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-clinic.com.ph/Files/Pai/HIV%20Pre-Exposure%20Prophylaxis%20(PrEP)%20%E2%80%93%20Get%20PrEP%20at%20PULSE%20Clinic%20Philippines%2001.jpg&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Does PrEP Work in HIV Prevention?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;The two medications used for PrEP belong to a group of antiviral drugs called nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). These drugs work by preventing HIV from multiplying. Before starting PrEP, it is recommended that you see a doctor and get tested for HIV.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;You must test negative for HIV before beginning PrEP. Additionally, the doctor will advise you to have a blood test to check your liver and kidney function to ensure they are normal.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;For ongoing follow-ups, you should see your doctor every 3 months for HIV testing and to screen for common STDs such as &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://pulse-clinic.com.ph/syphilis-in-the-philippines-symptoms-testing-risks-and-effective-treatment&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;syphilis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://pulse-clinic.com.ph/chlamydia-in-the-philippines-symptoms-testing-and-treatment&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;chlamydia&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;, and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://pulse-clinic.com.ph/gonorrhea-testing-in-philippines&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;gonorrhea&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;If you do not test for HIV before starting PrEP and are later found to be HIV positive while taking it, you may develop drug resistance, which can affect the effectiveness of HIV treatment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;It is Also Important to see a Doctor Before Starting Prep so that you can receive proper counselling and advice on the proper use of PrEP.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;PrEP counselling includes but is not limited to:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Type of drugs to take&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Importance of compliance&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Side effects to look out for&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Importance of regular monitoring&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Who is Suitable to Take PrEP?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Those who are good candidates for PrEP are listed as, but not limited to, the following:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Have a sexual partner who is HIV positive&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Inconsistent use of a condom&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Have contracted a sexually transmitted infection (STI) in the past six months&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Drug users who share needles (syringes)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Have an injection partner who has tested positive for HIV&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Have been prescribed post-exposure prophylaxis multiple times&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Risks vs. benefits of taking PrEP&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pros&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Very effective in HIV prevention&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Convenient daily pill dosing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;A good option for serodiscordant couples (only one partner is HIV positive) when trying to conceive&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Compliance is important&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;There are potential side effects.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Possible side effects&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Some common side effects of both medications include:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Diarrhoea&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Fatigue&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Headache&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Nausea&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;If you feel you may be at risk of contracting HIV, do speak to our doctor to find out if PrEP is suitable for you and how you can get started on PrEP.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;PrEP is meant to reduce risk before exposure and is only suited for people with a constant, ongoing high risk of acquiring HIV infection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;If you have never started PrEP and are recently exposed to HIV, you should consider &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.ph/hiv-pep&quot;&gt;Post-Exposure Prophylaxis&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; (&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.ph/hiv-pep&quot;&gt;HIV &lt;strong&gt;PEP)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; within 72 hours after exposure to potential HIV infection.

Daily PrEP&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;PrEP is very effective if taken daily. Studies have shown that daily dosing of co-formulated TDF/FTC can reduce the risk of getting HIV from sex by about 99%.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;HIV PrEP needs to be taken for seven days before high levels of protection are achieved for both vaginal and rectal exposure to HIV.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;PrEP does not protect against other STIs. Responsible, safe sex and the use of barrier contraception should be practiced.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 style=&quot;color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: none 0% 0% repeat scroll transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;2.

&lt;p style=&quot;color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is recommended in cisgender men who have sex with men. A double dose (two tablets) of co-formulated TDF/FTC will be taken 2-24 hours&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;b&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;efore&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;potential sexual exposure, followed by single doses 24 and 48 hours after the initial dose.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;color: #0e101a; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366; background: transparent; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;&quot; data-preserver-spaces=&quot;true&quot;&gt;When potential exposure is sustained for more than a 24-hour period, one tablet per day should be taken until the last exposure, followed by the 2 post-exposure tablets.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=&quot;p1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Using a &lt;strong&gt;2-1-1&lt;/strong&gt; dosage timeline&amp;mdash;two pills between 2 and 24 hours before sex, one pill 24 hours after the first pill, and a final pill 24 hours later&amp;mdash;PrEP is shown to give you the same protection against HIV as taking it every day.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-clinic.com/Files/PrEP%20on%20demand%20new.png&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;If you&amp;rsquo;re thinking about PrEP On Demand, it&amp;rsquo;s super important to take all your doses on time. If you&amp;rsquo;re worried about missing doses, chat with your doctor or counsellor about switching to daily PrEP instead.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;PrEP On Demand only protects you from HIV exposure during anal sex. If you&amp;rsquo;re into activities like chem fun (CF), a daily PrEP course will be more effective in keeping you safe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Safety &amp;amp; Adverse Side Effects&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;HIV PrEP does not cause any severe side effects. The common side effects include upset stomach and nausea, but the symptoms are mild and improve over time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;However, you should tell your doctor if these or other symptoms become severe or do not go away.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-clinic.com.ph/Files/Pai/HIV%20Pre-Exposure%20Prophylaxis%20(PrEP)%20%E2%80%93%20Get%20PrEP%20at%20PULSE%20Clinic%20Philippines%2002.jpg&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Starting Your HIV PrEP&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;First Doctor Consultation:&amp;nbsp;You can discuss HIV and sexual health with our experienced infectious diseases doctor to decide whether PrEP is right for you. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;1. Regular follow-up visits with the doctor are required when you are on PrEP.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Blood tests for HIV, STIs, and baseline renal and liver functions will be offered by the doctor during the first consultation.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Counselling will also be carried out to ensure medication is taken as prescribed and assess for side effects to the medicine, as well as to obtain a new prescription so that PrEP is not interrupted.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Sexual health counselling will also be provided to educate on reducing the risk of acquiring HIV. &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.ph/hiv-testing&quot;&gt;HIV tests&lt;/a&gt; will also be done regularly at 3- to 6-month intervals.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;2. PrEP does not protect one against other Sexually Transmitted Infections. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;A condom is the most effective barrier to HIV and is also the best way of reducing one&#39;s chances of picking up or passing on other STIs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;HIV blood tests and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com.ph/std-testing&quot;&gt;STD screening&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;will be done every 3 to 6 months, with additional treatment depending on patient-reported sexual risk behaviour. Other age-dependent tests for serum creatinine will be offered every 6 to 12 months.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;The need for continued PrEP will be assessed by the doctor and determined based on an assessment of the patient&#39;s risk of HIV infection within the past 12 months.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://cms.pulse-clinic.com.ph/Files/Pai/HIV%20Pre-Exposure%20Prophylaxis%20(PrEP)%20%E2%80%93%20Get%20PrEP%20at%20PULSE%20Clinic%20Philippines%2003.jpg&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; style=&quot;display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
