Sexualized drug use (‘chemsex’) and high‐risk sexual behaviours in <scp>HIV</scp>‐positive men who have sex with men

Abstract

Three in ten sexually active HIV-positive MSM engaged in chemsex in the past year, which was positively associated with self-reported depression/anxiety, smoking, nonsexual drug use, risky sexual behaviours, STIs, and hepatitis C. Chemsex may therefore play a role in the ongoing HIV and STI epidemics in the UK.
