Lower the chances of HIV with PEP

For those who have been exposed to the HIV virus through unprotected sex or broken condoms, PEP is another way of lowering the chances of getting an HIV infection. 

 

PEP stands for Post-Exposure Prophylaxis, and it is a mix of anti-HIV medication that can help those who are able to take the treatment within 72 hours of the exposure. 

To get your hands on PEP, you need to visit DSC Clinic or the A&E department of any hospital and request for it. You’ll be assessed by a doctor before PEP is prescribed.

According to DSC Clinic, PEP will not be prescribed to you if you have been exposed to the virus for more than 72 hours. 

Spread The Word For AIDS Awareness Month 

While AIDS and STIs are not commonly talked about, there are about 8,000 people living with HIV in Singapore. According to the Ministry of Health, there were 313 new and reported cases of HIV infections just last year, with the primary mode of transmission being sexual intercourse.

It’s important to get screened for not just HIV but also other STIs. Get your free screening coupon at the clubs this December!
