Unfortunately, RFSL Uppsala is not currently able to provide access to PrEP for those who need it. If you are looking for more information on PrEP, as well as a listing of places that can provide you access to it, visit the RFSL federation’s website on this topic:

PrEP, pre-exposure prophylaxis for HIV prevention, are medications that a HIV negative person can take to avoid getting HIV. If you feel that condoms don’t always work for you, PrEP can be an effective alternative. The Public Health Agency of Sweden recommends that PrEP is offered to people with a significantly increased risk of HIV infection. This includes men and some trans people who have sex with men that have recently had a sexually transmitted infection (STI), that have recently had chemsex, or that have recently sold sex. Talk to your physician if you’re interested in PrEP.
