PrEP is highly effective in preventing HIV. It’s up to 99% effective at preventing new HIV infections when you take the daily pill correctly or get your injections on time. Just as importantly, PrEP gives you peace of mind, knowing that you’re protecting yourself, your partners, and your community. And, for most people, PrEP is free or low-cost.

To get the best protection against HIV, you must take it exactly as directed by your healthcare provider and avoid missing doses or appointments.
