There are a range of preventative medications available for individuals wanting to have safer sex without the use of condoms or other barriers, that can protect a person against a range of STIs including HIV.

PrEP or pre-exposure prophylaxis, is a type of medication a person can take to prevent HIV infection if at risk due to having regular bareback sex, you think you may be having bareback sex with a partner who is HIV positive or, if you or your sexual partner is having bareback sex with other people.
