Incidence of STIs higher among daily vs. event-driven PrEP users

The incidence of STIs is higher among men who have sex with men, or MSM, who take daily pre-exposure prophylaxis, or PrEP, for HIV prevention compared with those who use event-driven PrEP, according to recently published study findings.

Researchers said the finding suggests the need to tailor prevention interventions according to sexual behavior profiles.
