@Felthry Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis, a combination of two antiretrovirals that substantially decrease the risk of aquiring HIV. Currently sold under the brand name Truvada.
@Felthry so part of what's going on with it is it's currently really expensive in the US (sticker price >$1500/mo) which is bullshit because it was developed using public money and Gilead just bought the patent. Elsewhere in the world is literally cents per pill. There's a push to change that.
