APRETUDE: Revolutionizing HIV Prevention
APRETUDE offers extended protection with fewer doses, eliminating the need for daily pills. Its convenience enhances adherence and user satisfaction, making it a top choice for HIV prevention.


Getting Started with APRETUDE
To begin APRETUDE, consult your healthcare provider to assess your eligibility. Your journey starts with a health evaluation and your first injection, followed by regular follow-ups to ensure ongoing protection and well-being.


APRETUDE Dosing Schedule
Treatment may start with a 30mg cabotegravir oral tablet taken daily for one month to assess tolerance. Alternatively, you can begin directly with the APRETUDE injection. The initial phase requires monthly injections for two months, followed by bimonthly doses. Talk to your doctor to see if APRETUDE suits your needs. Transform your approach to HIV prevention with APRETUDE.
