HIV Prevention: Pharmacist Prescribed PrEP and PEP
Clinical Education and Strategies for Trauma-Informed Approaches to Pharmacy-Led HIV Prevention Efforts
Pharmacists are positioned to play a critical role in shifting who has access to tools for HIV prevention by making HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) and HIV Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) more visible and accessible to those who stand to benefit most.
The individuals most at risk of acquiring HIV in their lifetime are also more likely to experience stigma from providers and encounter significant barriers to care. Those same individuals are also more likely to engage with their community pharmacy than with other healthcare providers.
Pharmacists play a vital role in reducing the number of new HIV diagnoses by making PrEP and PEP more visible and equitably accessible at pharmacies, and by providing care that is trauma-informed and culturally aware.
This training was made possible in consideration of and recognizes the work of the CDC Division of HIV Prevention (DHP). For more information, please visit https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/default.html
