There is no vaccine for HIV, but you can prevent it. You can lower your chances of getting HIV by taking a medicine for pre-exposure prophylaxis (called PrEP) if:
- your sex partner is HIV-positive,
- you have more than one sexual partner, or
- you share injection drug equipment with others.
Free PrEP
麻豆学生精品版 offers pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for free if you do not have health insurance and have a high chance of getting HIV. We do this through in partnership with the Utah Department of Health and the Utah AIDS Foundation.
We offer free virtual and in-person PrEP appointments on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and every other Saturday.
If your insurance is accepted by 麻豆学生精品版, we also provide PrEP. Please call us at 801-585-2031.
Our goal is to reduce the number of new cases of HIV in Utah by increasing access to PrEP for primarily uninsured or underinsured Utahns.

HOW DOES PREP WORK?
PrEP (also known as Truvada or Descovy) is a pill you take every day that helps you prevent getting HIV. You must also, however, also use other harm reduction and safe-sex practices. When the medication builds up inside your bloodstream, it can stop HIV from spreading inside your body.
The key is that you must take the medication every day in order for it to work.
