Please share this with your health provider. If your doctor does not have a great deal of HIV experience, he or she may want to contact a more experienced provider to support making decisions around PEP. San Francisco General Hospital has a 24-hour PEPline, which offers guidance around occupational HIV PEP. It may also help providers making decisions for non-occupational PEP. The phone number is 1-888-448-4911. The Provider AIDS Training (PAT) Warm Line (800-933-3413) has skilled staff to support doctors with HIV drug management decisions. These resources are for health care providers only.
