What you should know.
Effective
If used consistently, PrEP can reduce the risk of HIV infection by 99%. Consistent use means taking a tablet once a day, ideally at the same time each day.
Daily
PrEP is a daily pill. PrEP must be taken every day to ensure that you are fully protected.
For everyone
PrEP is for anyone who thinks they are at risk of contracting HIV, regardless of gender, age, religion, race, sexuality, etc.
Other STIs
PrEP is revolutionary in its protection against HIV. However, PrEP does not protect against any other STIs or pregnancy, so it should be used in combination with other barrier methods such as condoms.
- Book a consultation with one of our Clinical Officers. They will assess your eligibility for PrEP, provide counselling about PrEP and answer any questions you might have. This is a completely judgement-free and confidential service.
- If you are eligible for PrEP, buy an HIV self-test kit from Bulamu Bridge AI.
- Take your HIV self-test and upload a photo of your test results on Bulamu Bridge AI.
- Book a second consultation so our Clinical Officers can prescribe PrEP.
- Based on your test results, our Clinical Officers will prescribe PrEP and put it in your cart on Bulamu Bridge AI.
- Then it is up to you to check out. Once you do, Bulamu Bridge AI will deliver your PrEP directly to your door.
What is a PrEP assessment like?
To onboard onto PrEP, all patients must complete a PrEP assessment to make sure that you are an appropriate patient for PrEP. As part of this assessment you will be asked questions which assess your risk of contracting HIV, and questions about your medical history to make sure PrEP is a safe drug for you to take.
HIV self-test kits.
There are lots of HIV self-tests (HIVST) on the market. Bulamu Bridge AI offers two tests for clients to onboard onto PrEP: Mylan and Sure Check. Only Mylan and Sure Check can be used to onboard through Bulamu Bridge AI because of the uniqueness of the online onboarding journey.
Mylan
The Mylan HIV self-test is a single-use, rapid diagnostic test for the detection of antibodies to HIV in blood. The test is intended to be used by untrained lay users in a private setting as a self-test to aid in the diagnosis of HIV. It gives results within 15 minutes.
