A member asked:
Hi doctor, after having vaginal unprotected sex with a casual female parter, i initiated pep, 34/36 hours after the encounter. i'm now on the 12th day and i got flu like symptoms. is pep highly effective if taken within this time frame? thank you?

PrEP is PreExposure Prophylaxis so hence is most effective if taken before exposure. In your situation it is probably helpful if you were in fact exposed, but that would not be "highly effective."
