PrEP, Male, Injectable Baseline + HIV RNA
Also known as: HIV, PrEP, Prophylaxis
Use
This profile aligns with current guidelines for assessment of male patients prior to the initiation of injectable HIV PrEP.
Special Instructions
Not provided.
Limitations
HIV p24 antigen/antibody specimens with reactive results must be investigated by additional supplemental tests. A negative test for an individual does not preclude exposure to or infection with HIV-1 and/or HIV-2. Negative results can occur if the quantity of the marker present in the sample is too low for detection by the assay or if the marker is not present during the stage of disease in which a sample is collected.
