Hello I’m Michael from SA, i’m on PrEP medication, at clinic they used to give me Tenemine, but the other day they gave me Dumiva. I noticed when I arrived at home, is Dumiva also used as PrEP?

Hi, how are you?
No, Dumiva is not an approved combination to be used as PrEP.
Dumiva and Tenemine are different combinations of drugs.
