State Resources

Explore our state profiles to see how community pharmacies can play a vital role in expanding access to HIV prevention services, especially in underserved areas. The state profiles highlight that there are often significantly more pharmacies than Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) prescribing locations in communities where HIV prevention services are most needed.

Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) is a medication that significantly reduces the risk of acquiring HIV when taken as prescribed. By showing where PrEP is currently prescribed, these profiles help identify gaps in HIV prevention services, indicating where increased efforts are needed.

Why RxEACH State Profiles Matter

RxEACH state profiles can be valuable tools for understanding and addressing gaps in HIV prevention services by:

  • Sharing information visually on the distribution of PrEP prescribing locations alongside community pharmacies, highlighting the potential for community pharmacies to fill existing gaps in PrEP prescribing locations
  • Raising awareness of the potential for community pharmacies to play a pivotal role in expanding access to HIV prevention services, and,
  • Supporting targeted actions to improve equitable access to HIV prevention services, such as outreach initiatives, education campaigns, and policy advocacy.
