PrEP and PEP Protect You at Different Times
PrEP and PEP can both help prevent HIV, but they are designed for very different situations.
PrEP
PrEP, or pre-exposure prophylaxis, is medication for people who do not have HIV and want ongoing protection before a potential exposure occurs.
When taken as prescribed, PrEP reduces the risk of acquiring HIV from sex by about 99%.
Learn About PrEPPEP
PEP, or post-exposure prophylaxis, is emergency HIV prevention medication taken after a possible exposure to HIV.
PEP must be started quickly.
Learn About PEPPEP should be started as soon as possible after a qualifying exposure, ideally within 24 hours and no later than 72 hours.
When PEP is prescribed, the recommended treatment course is 28 days.
Why HIV Prevention Matters in Georgia
HIV continues to affect communities throughout Georgia.
Understanding the numbers helps demonstrate why HIV testing, PrEP, PEP and convenient access to prevention services remain important throughout the state.
According to the Georgia Department of Public Health:
There were 2,485 people newly diagnosed with HIV in Georgia in 2024.
Georgia had a diagnosis rate of 26.4 per 100,000 people age 13 and older in 2024.
There were 66,896 people of all ages living with HIV in Georgia in 2024.

Could PrEP Be Right for You?
You do not need to fit a particular stereotype or consider yourself “high risk” to ask a medical provider about PrEP.
PrEP may be an option for people without HIV who want additional protection from acquiring HIV through sex or injection drug use.
You may want to discuss PrEP if:
You Have New or Multiple Sexual Partners
Your relationships or partners change and you would feel more comfortable having additional protection against HIV.
Condom Use Is Not Consistent
You sometimes have vaginal or anal sex without using a condom.
Your Partner Has HIV
PrEP may provide additional protection when your sexual partner has HIV, particularly when their viral suppression status is unknown or not sustained.
You Have Had a Recent STI
A recent sexually transmitted infection may be one reason to review your overall HIV prevention plan with a provider.
You Inject Drugs
PrEP may be appropriate for people who inject drugs and have shared needles, syringes or other injection equipment.
You Simply Want Additional Protection
Wanting more control over your HIV prevention is a valid reason to talk with a provider about PrEP.

What PrEP Costs With DevotedDOc
Knowing the full picture before you start makes this easier. PrEP has four possible costs, and they are billed separately.
Your Medical Visit
$99 to startA private telehealth visit with a licensed DevotedDOc provider who reviews your health history, medications, and prevention goals.
Lab Testing
VariesHIV testing is required before starting PrEP, and periodic lab monitoring is required during treatment. Lab costs depend on your insurance, the lab you use, and which tests your provider orders. Some Georgia health departments and community programs offer free or low-cost HIV and STI testing.
Your Medication
Varies widelyGeneric emtricitabine/tenofovir DF (generic Truvada) is the most affordable PrEP option for most patients. Your actual cost depends on your prescription, pharmacy, insurance, and any assistance program you qualify for. See the cash-price option below.
Shipping and Follow-Up
When home delivery is available for your prescription, shipping terms depend on the pharmacy. Follow-up visits are billed separately from your first visit.
A lower-cost cash pathway for generic PrEP
Generic emtricitabine/tenofovir DF — the generic version of Truvada — is available through cash-price pharmacies including Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drug Company, which publishes a transparent price built from manufacturer cost plus a fixed markup and pharmacy fee. For patients without insurance, or with high-deductible plans, this pathway is often substantially less expensive than a traditional retail pharmacy.
How it works: your DevotedDOc provider sends your prescription to the pharmacy you choose. You pay the pharmacy directly for the medication. Prices are set by the pharmacy, not by DevotedDOc, and change over time.
Medication pricing is set by the dispensing pharmacy and varies by product, strength, quantity, and location. DevotedDOc does not set, control, or guarantee medication pricing and receives no compensation from any pharmacy named on this page. Shipping, lab testing, and visit fees are separate. Not all patients are eligible for every medication or pharmacy option.

Need PEP? Act Quickly.
PEP is emergency HIV prevention medication taken after a possible HIV exposure.
If you think you may have been exposed to HIV, do not wait for symptoms.
PEP should be started as soon as possible, ideally within 24 hours and no later than 72 hours after exposure.
You may want an urgent PEP evaluation after:
A medical provider can evaluate the exposure and determine whether PEP is recommended.
How Much Time Do You Have?
Seek Care Immediately
This is the preferred timeframe for beginning PEP after a qualifying HIV exposure.
The sooner PEP begins, the better.
You Are Still Within the PEP Window
Seek medical care immediately.
Do not wait to see whether symptoms develop.
Time Is Running Out
PEP may still be recommended, but you should seek medical evaluation immediately.
Talk With a Provider About What Comes Next
PEP is generally not recommended when more than 72 hours have passed since an exposure.
A provider can still discuss:
- HIV testing
- Follow-up testing
- STI screening
- Prevention counseling
- Starting PrEP for future protection

Questions People in Georgia Are Asking
Yes. Eligible Georgia patients can complete a PrEP evaluation with a licensed DevotedDOc provider by telehealth.
Your provider reviews your health history and medications, orders the lab testing required before starting PrEP, and determines whether PrEP is medically appropriate for you. Lab testing is completed in person at a location near you.
Yes. PrEP is for people who do not have HIV, so HIV testing is required before you start and periodically while you continue. Some PrEP medications also require kidney function testing.
Your provider orders these tests and helps you find a nearby location — this part of your care happens in person, not online.
Your DevotedDOc medical visit starts at $99. Lab testing, medication, and shipping are billed separately and vary based on your insurance, pharmacy, and which tests and medication your provider recommends.
Generic PrEP medication is often the lowest-cost option, and cash-price pharmacies publish their prices directly.
Insurance is not required to start a PrEP evaluation. Uninsured patients may reduce medication costs through generic options, cash-price pharmacies, manufacturer assistance programs, and federal and state PrEP assistance programs.
Some Georgia health departments and community organizations also offer free or low-cost HIV and STI testing.
Most insurance plans and Georgia Medicaid cover PrEP. Your individual coverage, deductible, and out-of-pocket cost vary by plan.
Your provider and pharmacy can help you understand what your plan covers.
CDC reports that PrEP reduces the risk of acquiring HIV from sex by about 99% when taken as prescribed, and by at least 74% for people who inject drugs.
Effectiveness depends on taking it consistently.
PrEP may be appropriate for anyone without HIV who wants added protection — regardless of gender, sexual orientation, or relationship type.
That includes people with new or multiple partners, people whose partner has HIV, people who inject drugs, and people who simply want more control over their HIV prevention. You do not need to consider yourself "high risk" to ask.
No. PrEP prevents HIV only. It does not prevent gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, or pregnancy.
Regular STI screening and other prevention methods may still be recommended.
Home delivery may be available for eligible prescriptions, shipped discreetly.
Availability depends on your prescription, pharmacy, and location, and shipping terms are set by the pharmacy.
PEP is an emergency intervention. It should be started as soon as possible after a possible HIV exposure — ideally within 24 hours and no later than 72 hours.
A telehealth provider may be able to evaluate you, but do not wait for a telehealth appointment. If no appointment is immediately available, go to an emergency department or urgent care, contact a participating Georgia pharmacy under the state's PEP standing order, or call the Georgia AIDS & STI InfoLine at 1-800-551-2728.
PEP is generally not recommended more than 72 hours after exposure.
You should still speak with a provider about HIV testing, follow-up testing, STI screening, and whether starting PrEP would protect you going forward.
PrEP is taken before a potential exposure for ongoing protection. PEP is taken after a possible exposure as an emergency measure, as a 28-day course.
If you have needed PEP more than once, ask a provider whether PrEP would be a better ongoing option for you.
