PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis)
If you believe you have definately been exposed to HIV within the last 72 hours, you can contact your local hospital, your GP or your partner's GP or HIV specialist to enquire about PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis), a prescribed course of antiretroviral treatment. PEP must be taken within 72 hours of exposure. PEP should not be considered a viable option in place of condoms. Always use condoms and lube every time you have sex.
Have a safe and happy holiday!
