Could a simple app help pharmacists stop HIV?
NCT ID NCT07683117
First seen Jul 06, 2026 · Last updated Jul 08, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests whether a software program called PEPPI makes it easier for pharmacists to offer HIV prevention pills (PEP and PrEP) and for patients to get them. Pharmacists and patients use the software during their normal visits, and researchers compare how well the service works with and without the tool. The goal is to see if technology can boost access to HIV prevention in community pharmacies.
