Abstract
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is highly efficacious for preventing HIV. Demonstrations worldwide show growing acceptability with nonoral formulations in the pipeline. Despite these successes, oral PrEP scale-up in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), the region hardest hit by HIV, remains sub-optimal. This review details emerging practises and addresses challenges in PrEP scale-up and delivery within SSA.
