Case 13. Got PrEP? HIV Adjacent Care

Like many in HIV, Chris is also a PrEP provider. In this episode, he presents a case to Dr. Rona Vail to work through the best approach to PrEP for a young, gay Black man. They work through the issues of oral vs injectable PrEP, dosing schedules for oral PrEP, the studies that support each approach, and this patient’s eligibility for each to determine the best recommendations. They end by discussing barriers to PrEP and the importance of choices now that there are so many PrEP options.References Cited: Bekker LG, Das M, Abdool Karim Q, et al.
