Dose Response for Starting and Stopping HIV Preexposure Prophylaxis for Men Who Have Sex With Men

Abstract

High PrEP activity for MSM was achieved by approximately 1 week of daily dosing. Although effective intracellular drug concentrations persist for several days after stopping PrEP, a reasonable recommendation is to continue PrEP dosing for 4 weeks after the last potential HIV exposure, similar to recommendations for postexposure prophylaxis.
