More about your care

What is it?

PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) is an antiretroviral medication taken by an HIV-negative person to reduce the risk of acquiring HIV through sex. It is not a vaccine, does not cure HIV, and does not protect against other sexually transmitted infections.

There are two dosing schedules: daily dosing (one tablet per day) and event-driven or on-demand dosing (2-1-1), which involves taking two tablets between 2 and 24 hours before sex, one at 24 hours and another at 48 hours. The event-driven schedule is only indicated for men who have sex with men.

Before starting PrEP, a negative HIV test and kidney function assessment are essential. Regular follow-up with HIV testing, kidney function monitoring and STI screening is a core part of the programme.

Read the full condition information

PrEP reduces the risk of acquiring HIV when taken on the agreed schedule. HIV infection must be excluded and kidney function checked before starting; follow-up includes regular testing and wider sexual-health care.

HOW COMMON IT IS

PrEP use has grown significantly in Europe since its approval. More public health systems are including it within their HIV prevention strategies.

CAUSES

  • Anal or vaginal sex without condoms with partners of unknown or positive HIV status
  • Multiple sexual partners without consistent condom use
  • Injecting drug use or chemsex
  • Recent diagnosis of other STIs as a risk marker
  • Sexual partner with HIV without suppressed viral load
  • Sex work

TREATMENT APPROACHES

  • Daily tablet of tenofovir-emtricitabine combination
  • Event-driven dosing (2-1-1) for scheduled anal sex in men
  • Negative HIV test before starting and every 3 months
  • Kidney function monitoring at baseline and during follow-up
  • Regular STI screening
  • Referral to public health services when appropriate

WHEN TO SEE A DOCTOR

If you think PrEP may be right for you, see a doctor for a full assessment including HIV testing, kidney function checks and STI screening before starting.

Read the refund terms
HIV PrEP sits within the sexual health area that Hi-Doctor covers. Our doctors review your case individually, not through an algorithm, and propose a therapeutic approach when indicated.
You fill in a sexual health-oriented medical questionnaire (~5 min). An EU-licensed doctor reviews your clinical history, current medication, allergies and background in less than 2 hours on average. If clarifications are needed, they message you via the private chat in your account.
The doctor proposes the most appropriate treatment among those authorised in the EU for sexual health. A sexual health consultation is a €35 one-off. Other areas: €25/month for weight loss, €15/month (billed €45 every 90 days) for hair growth and €40 per skin consultation. If your case is not eligible, the applicable fee is refunded in full.
It depends on the case. For sexual health, reasonable timelines are explained during the consultation and follow-up lives inside the private chat. The full medical record stays in an auditable thread inside your account.
Yes. Hi-Doctor runs 100% online across the EU, so from Vienna you can fill in the questionnaire and receive the medical review without travelling. The electronic prescription issued by the licensed doctor is valid at any EU pharmacy under Directive 2011/24/EU; outside Spain the pharmacist dispenses the locally marketed equivalent of the same active ingredient.
Yes. All communication happens in the private chat of your account, GDPR-compliant. The doctor treats discretion as a core of the service and there is no history visible outside your consultation.
The private electronic prescription (Receta Médica Privada Electrónica) is issued by a licensed doctor in Spain. It is a PDF carrying every field required by EU Directive 2011/24/EU (patient, prescriber with country of registration, active ingredient, dose), which makes it legally recognised across all 27 EU member states. In Spanish pharmacies it is dispensed from the QR; outside Spain, the pharmacist dispenses the locally marketed equivalent of the same active ingredient.
1) Fill in an online medical questionnaire in about 4 minutes. 2) A sexual health consultation is a €35 one-off. Other areas: €25/month for weight loss, €15/month (billed €45 every 90 days) for hair growth and €40 per skin consultation. 3) An EU-licensed doctor reviews your case and, if appropriate, issues an electronic prescription. 4) Collect it at any EU pharmacy. If the review is not approved, the applicable fee is refunded in full.
