- We have two options for PrEP:
1. TRUVADA is a pill taken once every day to prevent HIV.
2. DESCOVY is a pill taken once a day to prevent HIV. - People who want to protect themselves from HIV, regardless of their sexual activities or other reasons, should consider talking to their healthcare provider about PrEP.
