Case-by-case approach
Based on a complete sexual and alcohol and other drug-using history and the personal circumstances of the patient, if the clinician is of the opinion that the patient is likely to be at high risk of HIV, then PrEP prescription may be considered despite the absence of reported high- or medium-risk factors above. Specific consideration should be given to recommending PrEP to a patient who is travelling to one or more countries with high HIV prevalence and is likely to be sexually active while travelling. |
