Get Pep HIV Treatment Online
Time is critical after a potential HIV exposure. Doctronic connects you with a licensed physician who can evaluate your situation and, if appropriate, prescribe HIV post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) fast, from wherever you are.
What Is Pep HIV?
HIV PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis) is a short-course antiretroviral treatment used after a potential exposure to HIV to prevent infection from taking hold. It works by blocking HIV replication in the body during the critical window before the virus can establish a permanent infection. PEP must be started within 72 hours of exposure and taken daily for 28 days. With prompt initiation and consistent adherence, PEP is highly effective at preventing HIV infection.

Is Online Pep HIV Treatment Right for You?
Doctronic can evaluate adults who have had a recent potential exposure to HIV and may need post-exposure prophylaxis. This includes exposures through sexual contact, needle sharing, or occupational injury, where treatment within the 72-hour window is still possible.
Because PEP involves antiretroviral medications that interact with other drugs and underlying health conditions, our physicians will review your exposure history, current medications, kidney function, and any prior HIV testing or treatment history before prescribing.

Frequently asked questions
PEP stands for post-exposure prophylaxis. It is a 28-day course of antiretroviral medications taken after a potential HIV exposure to prevent the virus from establishing a permanent infection. The medications block HIV from replicating in your body during the window before it can integrate into your cells.
PEP must be started as soon as possible and no later than 72 hours after a potential HIV exposure. The sooner you start, the more effective it is. After 72 hours, PEP is not considered effective and is generally not recommended.
PEP is highly effective when started promptly and taken exactly as prescribed for the full 28 days, but it is not 100% guaranteed. Effectiveness is greatest when initiated within hours of exposure and when no doses are missed.
PEP is recommended after high-risk exposures such as unprotected sex with a person known or suspected to be HIV-positive, sharing needles or syringes, or occupational exposures such as needlestick injuries in healthcare settings.
Yes. A baseline HIV test is typically required before starting PEP to confirm you do not already have an existing HIV infection. Follow-up testing is also recommended at 4 to 6 weeks and again at 3 months after completing PEP.
Common side effects vary by regimen but may include nausea, headache, fatigue, and diarrhea. Most side effects are mild and tend to improve within the first week or two. Your physician will review the specific side effect profile of your prescribed regimen.
