Updates in this edition, disclaimer and credits
This is the eighth edition of this guide.
It was first produced in June 2016 and updated at least every year since. It includes information about access to PrEP in the UK and also on PrEP and sex work.
This guide is dedicated to our inspirational co-author Dr Mags Portman who was a leading advocate for PrEP in the UK. Mags died from mesothelioma in February 2019 aged 44. We miss her deeply.
Disclaimer
Information about PrEP can change based on new research.
Information in this booklet is meant to be used in discussion with your doctor.
