&lt;li class=&quot;li10&quot;&gt;Make sure you didn&#39;t have any potential exposure, 28 days before HIV test.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p17&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HOW TO TAKE PrEP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p18&quot;&gt;How to take your PrEP depends on:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class=&quot;ul1&quot;&gt;
&lt;ul class=&quot;ul1&quot;&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li11&quot;&gt;how far in advance you plan on having sex&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li11&quot;&gt;how regularly you have sex.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p19&quot;&gt;It does not necessarily depend on how much sex you have.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p20&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p21&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Daily PrEP (1 pill per day) routine.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p21&quot;&gt;The lead-in time for daily PrEP is 7 days. It&amp;rsquo;s suitable for both anal and vaginal or frontal sex. Daily PrEP is best taken at the same time each day, so it becomes part of your routine, but a few hours late or early is fine.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p5&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p4&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;On Demand PrEP or Event Based Dosing (EBD).&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p21&quot;&gt;This dosing option is only suitable for anal sex, not vaginal or frontal sex. If you know that you might have condomless sex 24 hours in advance:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class=&quot;ul1&quot;&gt;
&lt;ul class=&quot;ul1&quot;&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li22&quot;&gt;take 2 pills 2 &amp;ndash; 24 hours before sex&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li22&quot;&gt;take 1 pill 24 hours later&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li23&quot;&gt;take 1 more pill 24 hours after that&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p5&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p21&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4 pills per week &amp;mdash; also known as &amp;lsquo;the Ts and Ss&amp;rsquo;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p21&quot;&gt;This dosing option is only suitable for anal sex, not vaginal or frontal sex. We recommend daily dosing for 7 days, then dropping down to 4 pills per week. 4 pills per week usually involves taking a pill on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p5&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p21&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Holiday PrEP. &lt;/strong&gt;Holiday PrEP is suitable for both anal and vaginal or frontal sex. Based on a 7- day period (or holiday) we recommend 7-7-7:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul class=&quot;ul1&quot;&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li23&quot;&gt;7 days daily dosing before the period&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li22&quot;&gt;7 days daily dosing during the period (or for as long as the specific period lasts)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li class=&quot;li22&quot;&gt;7 days daily dosing after the period.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p24&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p21&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Drug of Choice for PrEP&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p25&quot;&gt;In PULSE Clinic Kuala Lumpur, we have two choice of PrEP medications which is Tenof-EM and Tenvir-EM. Both medications are available as tablets. Each tablet contains 200mg of Emtricitabine and 300mg of Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (which is equivalent to 245mg of Tenofovir Disoproxil).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p20&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;p21&quot;&gt;Common side effects of this medicine include nausea, diarrhea, headache, trouble sleeping, rash, and dizziness. These are usually not serious but inform your doctor if they bother you or do not go away. Avoid skipping doses and follow your doctor&amp;rsquo;s instructions carefully to get maximum benefit. Taking PrEP along with practicing safe sex will decrease the risk of getting the HIV virus by 99%.&lt;/p&gt;
