Avita is committed to expanding access to PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis), a daily pill that helps reduce the risk of HIV infection in people who are HIV negative. Avita pharmacists have expertise in managing PrEP as well as provide a wealth of services to support you, including medication delivery, OneClick refills, and financial assistance.
PrEP is one of the most powerful tools in the fight against HIV. When taken as prescribed, PrEP reduces the risk of HIV by up to 99% through sex and at least 74% through injection drug use. Presently, there are two drugs taken by mouth that are approved, Truvada®, and Descovy®*.
