What is DoxyPEP?

Your Shield Against Bacterial STIs DoxyPEP is a groundbreaking post-exposure preventative treatment for syphilis, chlamydia, and gonorrhea. Think of it as the morning-after pill, but for bacterial STIs. Take one dose after a condomless encounter to significantly reduce your risk.

It’s important to note that DoxyPEP does not prevent HIV, Mpox (monkeypox), or other viral infections.
