Why this test?
This panel is designed for individuals who are using or planning to start Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) as part of their HIV prevention strategy. It includes testing for HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs), as well as assessment of kidney and liver function to ensure the medication remains safe and appropriate. International guidelines recommend laboratory monitoring every 90 days (3 months) while taking PrEP. Regular testing confirms HIV-negative status, allows early detection of infections, and monitors organ function during treatment.

“The nurse that came (just at the beginning of my allotted time window, which was nice), was super friendly. The whole process took less than 15 minutes, and as a foreigner, it was so convenient to have them come right to my accommodation. Definitely recommend!”
