HIV PEP is widely available for health workers and rape victims. Visit your health center and request for it.

Unlike other PEPs where vaccines may be available , HIV PEP is got using same class of drugs used in the actual treatment of the disease.

These drugs usually have serious potential adverse effects, making them unsuitable for use in casual cases such as casual volutary sex.
