Question

Am I at risk if I am taking PrEP?

Hi, I have a partner who is HIV positive and sometimes he misses his medications. So i’m on PrEP. My question is that am I going to be affected?

Answer

Hi, how are you doing?

No. As long as you are taking PrEP daily you are not at risk of transmission.

How often if your partner missing their treatment? If it is not regular their medication will still be working. Even if it is more regular, it is still more likely that treatment is suppressing their viral load and reducing transmission risk, even if you weren’t on PrEP.

Do you know why your partner doesn’t always take their medication?

Josh.
