Question
Should I extend the course of PEP?
10 January 2023. Related: All topics, HIV transmission, PEP/PEPSE, PrEP.
I’m Peter, I was on PEP for 10 days and I had sex without a condom. I found out she was HIV positive, should I extend the days or stop when it was originally planned?
Answer
Hi Peter, how are you doing?
You can stop PEP when originally planned. While taking a course of PEP it is able to act as PrEP. This means that for the duration of PEP you are protected from further exposures.
