PEP treatment, or Post Exposure Prophylaxis, refers to the use of antiretroviral drugs to prevent HIV infection after potential exposure to the virus through sexual contact or sharing needles with an infected person. The medication can be used immediately and up to 72 hours after potential exposure; however, it must be started within 24 hours of the potential exposure to have the greatest effect.
