NCT ID NCT07687888

First seen Jul 07, 2026 · Last updated Jul 23, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study explores whether offering HIV prevention medication (PrEP) through pharmacies can help more young women aged 18-24 in Tanzania access and consistently use it. Researchers compare four different pharmacy-based service models to standard care, and later test cost-sharing approaches to improve long-term sustainability. The goal is to find practical ways to reach young women who may not otherwise get PrEP.
