Long-acting cabotegravir and lenacapavir both deliver near-complete protection. The faculty compare dosing schedules, drug interactions, and injection site reactions, and share techniques that make injections easier to tolerate.

Four approved PrEP options now span daily pills and long-acting injections. The faculty review how each agent works and where daily oral PrEP succeeds or falls short in practice.

Every clinician can prescribe or refer for PrEP. The faculty outline the education, team structures, and community outreach that build prescriber confidence, and explain why HIV prevention still matters in the treatment era.

A gap between perceived and actual risk, messaging that has not reached women, and long drive times to a prescriber all limit PrEP uptake. The faculty examine what sustains PrEP deserts and how to bridge them.

Confirming HIV-negative status before starting PrEP, and at every follow-up, protects against partial treatment and drug resistance. The faculty compare testing strategies across clinical and pharmacy settings.

Patients rarely ask about PrEP unless someone asks first. The faculty describe how primary care clinicians and community pharmacists can open the conversation with confidence and without judgment.

See how PrEP blocks HIV, who benefits most, and why access gaps hit women, youth, and the South—plus ways to close them.
