Would It Be Normal To Take PEP Medication For HIV?

If I took azithromycin and Rocephin in the one dose prescription 7 days ago is it normal to see white stringy particles in my urine and still have a burny feeling and wet tip, minimal discharged can be manually can be excreted manually if periods of urination are not frequent. Would it be normal if I was taking PEP medication for HIV. I am not HIV-positive

Hi,
Welcome.
Examine urine for the presence of pus cells and the discharge for the presence of organism to confirm whether the infection persists or not. If both are free from infection, consummation of adequate water will relieve you.Whether your partner had been treated or not? PEP is indicated only if there is a risky exposure, that too within 72 hours, preferably within 24 hours.
