The PrEP 2-1-1 protocol shown below is not FDA-approved; however, PrEP 2-1-1 has been endorsed by the International AIDS Society USA. |\n| --- |\n| What is the Difference Between PrEP and PrEP 2-1-1? |\n| Daily PrEP is the FDA-approved use of a daily pill (Truvada® or Descovy®) that combines two drugs to prevent HIV transmission. Many studies have shown that it can reduce the risk of HIV transmission by up to 99% . Studies have been done proving PrEP is effective for men, women, and transgender people, as well as preventing transmission through injection drug use. The United States Prevention Task Force has given PrEP Grade A status.\u003Cbr>The PrEP 2-1-1 dosing strategy has not been FDA approved but has been studied with Truvada® and shown to be an effective HIV prevention choice for MSM. PrEP 2-1-1 can prevent HIV transmission during anal sex. PrEP medication absorbs slower into vaginal tissue than anal tissue, so PrEP 2-1-1 is not an effective option for vaginal sex. PrEP 2-1-1 can be an option for people who have less frequent anal sex or for people who are unable or prefer not to take daily PrEP. |\n| How Does PrEP 2-1-1 Work? |\n\nPrEP 2-1-1 starts by taking TWO pills between 2 and 24 hours before sex. Taking the pills closer to 24 hours before sex is better but you can use PrEP 2-1-1 up to 2 hours before sex. After sex, you take ONE pill 24 hours after the first pills, and ONE pill again 24 hours after that. That’s PrEP 2-1-1, get it?  \n\n| \u003Cbr>Take TWO pills 2 – 24 hours before sex. If you know when you’ll have sex, take the pills\u003Cbr>closer to 24 hours before sex. | | \u003Cbr>Take ONE pill 24 hours after the first dose. | | \u003Cbr>Take ONE pill 48 hours after the first dose. |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n\nImportant Note: The PrEP 2-1-1 dosing schedule changes if you are going to have sex within seven days of your last PrEP dose. Start by taking just ONE pill between 2 and 24 hours before sex. You still take ONE pill 24 hours after the first pill, and ONE pill again 24 hours after that.  \n Daily PrEP has extensive clinical trial data on safety and efficacy and is the only dosing strategy recommended by the CDC.  \n The State Office of AIDS recommends PrEP and financial assistance may be available through California’s PrEP-Assistance  Program (PrEP-AP) for uninsured and insured individuals who meet the eligibility criteria.  \n PrEP 2-1-1 has only been studied in MSM. There is no data and it is not recommended for use in cis-women, cis-men who have sex with women, transgender women and men, people who inject drugs, or people with active hepatitis B coinfection.  \n The PrEP 2-1-1 protocol with Truvada® is the only non-daily strategy with evidence for HIV prevention. PrEP 2-1-1 with Descovy® is not recommended outside of a clinical trial.  \n PrEP 2-1-1 should be prescribed by a healthcare provider and should include HIV and STI testing at least every 3 months.  \n People considering PrEP 2-1-1 should be able to plan or delay their sexual activity so that their first dose is at least 2 hours (and preferably closer to 24 hours) before sex.  \nSelect Clinical Trials and References: IPERGAY (Molina et al.
