Uptake of HIV Preexposure Prophylaxis Among Commercially Insured Persons--United States, 2010-2014

Conclusions.
Our analytic method provides the only feasible means to monitor PrEP uptake in the United States. Although a marked increasing trend in uptake was observed for men, the number of women who used PrEP remained very low during the study period. Interventions are needed to increase PrEP use by women at substantial risk of acquiring HIV infection.
