PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis)
  • From early 2026 we are delighted to announce we are able to provide PrEP consultations directly. PrEP is a safe and effective daily medication (pill) for people who do not have HIV and are at high risk of infection. When taken correctly PrEP has been found to be about 99% effective.
  • Please Note: There is NO charge for PrEP medication for eligible patients. PrEP medication is provided through the HSE and our doctor will register you for this service at your consultation but you will need a PPS number and (opens in a new window)Drug Payment Scheme card.  There will be charges for the consultation +/- bloodwork.
