Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if I miss a dose of PrEP?

Back to all FAQs

Answer

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it’s close to your next scheduled dose, just take the next dose as usual. Missing a dose occasionally won’t drastically reduce protection, but it’s best to take PrEP consistently. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
