Why PrEP is important for sexually active people

Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis is a pill that can help prevent you from getting HIV every time you have unprotected sex or when exposed to the virus.

In several studies of PrEP, it has shown that the pill has lowered the chances of getting infected by 92% mostly for those who are consistent in taking the pill.

It is important to take the pill each day as it has a high level protection against HIV and is even more effective when combined with Condoms.

It is however important to note that the pill should be taken everyday and one should visit a health center after every 3 months for check ups and follow ups just to be on the safe side.

PrEP in other words is a pill that will help you be in control of your own health especially when you are sexually active.
