HIV PrEP Near Moreland Hills Ohio

Protect yourself against HIV with Preterm’s HIV PrEP services. HIV Prep is highly effective, and the HIV Prep pill reduces the risk of getting HIV from sex by more than 90%. HIV Prep is a method to help prevent HIV in which people without the virus take HIV medicine to reduce their risk of getting HIV if they have been exposed to the virus. HIV PrEP is only for people who are HIV negative, and it doesn’t stop you from getting other STDs.

HIV PrEP is for people of all sexual orientations and gender identities. The HIV Prep pill may benefit an individual who has consistent unprotected sex, a sexual partner who is HIV positive, or has contacted an STI within the past six months. HIV Prep can also be beneficial to any individual who uses drugs and shares any injectional equipment. Our providers can let you know if you would benefit from taking HIV Prep.

If an individual should decide to take the HIV Prep pill, you must visit your healthcare provider every three months to make sure you are HIV negative, check for other STDs, and prescription refills. HIV PrEP may not work for everyone. There are several reasons why individuals stop taking HIV PrEP: lifestyle changes, forgetfulness in taking the HIV PrEp pill, and other side effects pertaining to each individual.

Most insurance plans and state Medicaid programs cover HIV PrEP as well as other programs to reduce the cost of HIV PrEp for individuals. Some of those programs cover the cost of the HIV PrEP medication as well as some clinical visits and lab results. If you think HIV PrEP might be right for you, or if you have more questions, call Preterm to schedule an appointment at 216-991-4000.
