Taking less than the required dose will limit how effective PEP will be. PEP is also only routinely offered if within 3 days of exposure. After this the effectiveness is not well understood if any. However if you feel more comfortable taking PEP and side effects are not troubling you, it is safe to continue the course.<\/p>\n<p>How risky was the exposure? There are a number of factors that would change your risk and if this was considered low there would not be reason for PEP.
