Abstract
<p class="first" id="d9417469e246">Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is highly effective
for preventing HIV acquisition.
However, adherence among young women (aged 18-24 years) has been challenging. SMS
reminders have been shown to improve adherence to antiretroviral therapy in some contexts,
including in combination with real-time adherence monitoring. We aimed to determine
the effect of SMS reminders on PrEP adherence among young women in Kenya over a 2-year
period.
