How do I get "Doxy-PEP" (also known as STI-PEP)?

Get doxy-PEP online when you request your initial PrEP prescription or quarterly refill.
Doxy-PEP is an antibiotic for sexually transmitted infections (STI’s).
The medication works best when taken within 24 hours. Similarly, it should be taken within 72 hours after sex to prevent getting a sexually transmitted infection (STI or STD).
Doxy-PEP has been shown to prevent 80-90% of chlamydia and syphilis cases and approximately 50% of gonorrhea cases.

Who should use doxy-PEP?

This treatment is recommended for men who have sex with men and transgender women who have had a bacterial STI in the past.
Others should discuss doxy-PEP with their provider to understand the benefits and risks.
Doxy-PEP has not been found to be effective in cisgender women.

How do you use doxy-PEP?

Doxycycline (100 mg) is prescribed as two pills taken in one dose, preferably within 24 hours of exposure, but always within 72 hours.
Take Doxy-PEP after condomless oral, anal, or insertive vaginal sex.
You can take this medication as often as every day if there are daily exposures, but never more than once per day.
Additionally, it’s advised to take doxy-PEP with at least 8 oz. of water and remain standing for the next 30-60 minutes.

Important Usage Tips

Let your provider know if you have an allergy to doxycycline (or other tetracyclines) so as not to have an adverse reaction.
This medication is for individuals who are already using or plan to use PrEP.
Q Care Plus only prescribes and ships doxy-PEP at the same time as your initial PrEP or refill prescription.
Do not share your medication with others.
Regular STIs testing is important to detect infections that may occur without symptoms.
Wear sunscreen when using doxycycline, as your skin may be more sensitive to the sun.
Avoid consuming dairy, calcium, antacids, and/or multi-vitamins within 2 hours before or after taking your doxy-PEP medication.

Monty J.

“Before Q Care Plus, I genuinely didn’t think I’d ever be able to get put on PrEP; I thought there was no way I was going to afford it! Now, I’ve been on it for about a year and a half, and will be continuing it for the foreseeable future! I’m so grateful for how Q Care Plus has increased access to PrEP and for how easy it has made the entire process – not stressful at all! Anthony Interrante is my Q Care Plus Nurse Practitioner and he’s amazing! If I ever have a question about something, he’s super helpful and answers in a timely manner! If I happen to be late on submitting something, such as my at-home lab kit, he’ll bring it up in order to get me back on track, which I think is super helpful and important, so I really appreciate it! If you’re considering Q Care Plus, I cannot recommend it enough because my experience with it and with Anthony have been nothing but positive!”

Austin A.
