Free PEP medicine
Free PEP medicine is distributed free of charge by the Community Support Consulting Department to new subjects at risk of HIV exposure in emergency situations.
What is PEP?
PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis) is the use of medication to protect against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) after exposure to HIV may cause infection.
If you have a high risk of HIV infection, start taking PEP as soon as possible!
PEP must be taken within 72 hours of exposure to HIV. But the sooner you take PEP, the better. Every hour counts. If you use PEP as prescribed, you will need to comply with treatment for 28 days.
PEP should only be used in emergency situations and must be started within 72 hours of HIV exposure. If you think you have recently been exposed to HIV, see your doctor about PEP immediately.

Who should use PEP?
If you are HIV-negative or do not know your HIV status, and in the past 72 hours, you have had at least 1 of the following:
Exposure to HIV during sex (eg, broken condom).
Sharing needles, stepping on syringes.
Being sexually assaulted.
See your doctor for advice about PEP immediately!
PEP is effective, but not 100%. Therefore, you should continue to use condoms with your partner and take safety measures while using PEP. These can protect you from being exposed to HIV again. And reduce your chances of transmitting HIV to others if you become infected while you’re still taking PEP.
This is not the right choice for people who may be exposed to HIV regularly. People who may be exposed to HIV repeatedly should talk to their doctor about PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis).
Can anyone use PEP?
Use PEP only in situations immediately following a risk of HIV infection.
PEP must be started within 72 hours of the risk. The sooner you start PEP, the better; every hour counts.
Starting PEP as soon as possible after HIV exposure is important. Research has shown that PEP has little or no effect in preventing HIV infection. If it is started later than 72 hours after HIV exposure.
PEP is effectively treated with good compliance for 28 days.
Does PEP medicine have side effects?
PEP is safe, but it can cause nausea and side effects such as diarrhea and headaches in some people.
These side effects can go away on their own and do not seriously affect your health. You can ask your doctor about new PEP medications that have fewer side effects and are more effective.
Where can I get PEP medicine?
The community support consultation department is one of the most professional and reliable PEP treatment places. Community support consultation departments with expertise in HIV will better support you on how to treat PEP. How to reduce side effects, use better medications. And most importantly, monitor progress after ending PEP treatment.
Where to buy PEP medicine?
PEP drugs, also known as HIV post-exposure prophylaxis, are not sold in all medical units. You can go to a reputable private clinic licensed by the Ministry of Health to provide HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis. However, the number of private clinics capable of providing HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis can be counted on the fingers of one hand. If you want a quick procedure and thorough advice, please contact us immediately.
Price of PEP medicine?
Depending on the supply unit and permission from the Ministry of Health.
Should PEP treatment be routine?
PEP should only be used in emergency situations.
For example, PEP is not a suitable choice for people who are at risk of frequent HIV exposure – such as regularly having sex without a condom with an HIV-positive partner. If you are at ongoing risk for HIV, talk to your doctor about PrEP.
