Look for any brand of drug that contains the following combinations of drugs Efavirenz,emtricitabine and Tenofovir.One of the most commond brands is Viraday but you can also buy any brand that has the PEP combinatiosn listed above.You can get it at big pharmacies.

That Efavirenz is very costly ooo, the last time I wanted to buy it, the doctors at Emmergency ward of Federal medical centre Jabi FCT talked me out of it. Well I wanted to get it because I was afraid of exposure to Lassa virus.

you get choice? either buy it or risk HIV.The funny thing is that if you eventually get the virus you will still be taking the drugs.One pack should be between N15K-20K I guess.For HIV PEP you actually need a combo of those drugs in this ratio

Emtricitabine - 200 MG
• Tenofovir - 300 MG
• Efavirenz - 600 MG

BTW after 72 hous if PEP is not started then it better leave the matter to God as PEP becomes useless after this time interval.

If her HIV status is established as positive, your approach should be to know your status NOW. Repeat another test at the hospital in 4-6 weeks, 3 months then in 6 months.

Ideally therapy should begin right away within 3 days. Efavirenz is okay, but you have to take that on empty stomach. And because the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNTI) are known for their unique psychiatric side effects (nightmares, hallucination, suicidal thoughts, etc) and toxicity on the liver these class of ART drugs have fallen out of favor unless needed. Per the 2013 update on the IDSA Guidelines the PREFFERED PEP recommendation is a 3 drug regimen to include raltegravir, emtricitabine/Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. Treatment duration is 4-weeks and don’t take this combo with antacids, H2RAs and PPIs.
