Abstract

Oral preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) has been proven to be a safe and effective means of preventing HIV. The purpose of our literature review was to examine primary care provider knowledge and attitudes about prescribing PrEP. PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, and Scopus were searched and additional articles were identified through other sources, yielding 11 articles that met inclusion criteria. Overall, there was high variability among providers regarding attitudes, knowledge, and prescriptive practices related to PrEP. PrEP continues to be an underutilized HIV prevention intervention and more research focusing on provider-specific factors is warranted.
