PrEP: HIV Prevention That Fits Your Life.

PrEP, or pre-exposure prophylaxis, is medicine that helps prevent HIV before a person is exposed to the virus. PrEP is for people who do not have HIV but want extra protection and peace of mind.

PrEP is highly effective when taken as prescribed. It may be a good option if:

  • You sometimes have sex without condoms
  • You are unsure of your partner’s HIV status
  • You have a partner living with HIV
  • You have had a recent sexually transmitted infection, also called an STI
  • You have multiple partners
  • You inject drugs or share needles
  • You simply want another way to protect your sexual health

You do not have to know exactly what you need before making an appointment. Our team can talk with you, answer your questions, and help you choose the prevention option that works best for your life.

PrEP Options Available

PrEP is not one-size-fits-all. There are now several options, including daily pills and long-acting injections.

  • Daily PrEP pills Daily oral PrEP is taken once a day. These options include medications such as Truvada, generic Truvada, and Descovy. Your provider will help determine which pill is right for you based on your health history, labs, and type of HIV prevention needed.
  • Injectable PrEP every 2 months Apretude is a long-acting injectable PrEP option given by a healthcare provider every two months. This may be a good option for people who do not want to take a daily pill or who have trouble remembering daily medication.
  • Injectable PrEP every 6 months Yeztugo, also known as lenacapavir, is a newer long-acting injectable PrEP option given every six months after the starting doses. It was approved by the FDA in 2025 and gives people another option for HIV prevention.

What to Expect at Your PrEP Visit

At your first PrEP appointment, we will talk with you about your health, sexual health, and prevention goals. Your visit may include:

  • HIV testing
  • STI testing
  • Lab work to check your overall health
  • A conversation about which PrEP option may work best for you
  • Help with medication access and cost questions

Most PrEP patients return for routine follow-up visits and lab monitoring. These visits help make sure the medication is working well and remains safe for you.

Cost and Access

Five Horizons is here to help make PrEP accessible at no cost to you, whether you are insured or uninsured, no out-of-pocket expenses are incurred for PrEP medication.

PrEP Does Not Replace STI Protection

PrEP helps protect against HIV, but it does not protect against other STIs such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, or trichomoniasis. Condoms, routine testing, and open conversations with your healthcare provider are still important parts of sexual health.

Not Sure if PrEP is Right for You?

That is okay. You do not have to figure it out alone. Contact Five Horizons or request an appointment, and our team will help you understand your options in a judgment-free, confidential setting.

OPTIONS HOW OFTEN GOOD FOR
Descovy or Truvada (pill) Once Daily People who prefer a pill
Apretude Injection Every 2 months People who do not like taking pills
Yeztugo Injection Every 6 months People who want the longest-acting option
