Question
I forgot PEP in the second week…
22 July 2023. Related: Adherence, All topics, PEP/PEPSE.
I took PEP for a week and forgot the second week. I took one dose, should I continue for the remainder of treatment?
I have another appointment to see my health care provider but I’m scared. Please help, what do I do? Will it negatively affect my health?
Answer
Hi, how are you doing?
Do you mean you forgot PEP for the entire second week? If this is the case there would be no need to continue PEP. Unfortunately a week gap is too long to restart PEP.
If you missed only one day it would be recommended to continue with your treatment as normal.
