How can i find out if hiv pep meds can effect test results?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
PeP treatment: One should never test for HIV when on the post a exposure prophylaxis treatment. But once the 30 days are up and the medication is stopped then on day 14 one can get the HIV RNA test and the results will be 100% valid. Pep works!
