Mhealth for Pre-exposure Prophylaxis Adherence by Young Adult MSM

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Hiv

In brief

The proposed project involves the development and testing of an mhealth intervention to increase adherence to PrEP treatment using texts providing tailored pill reminders, motivational messages, and health education messages. The intervention targets culturally-diverse young adult men who have sex with men (YMSM), who are at high risk for both HIV and non-adherence to PrEP medication. Supporting PrEP adherence would help reduce new HIV infections in this group.
