Doxycycline prophylaxis for bacterial sexually transmitted infection prevention in Vietnam: awareness, attitudes and willingness to use among men who have sex with men using HIV-PrEP
Knowledge of doxycycline prophylaxis among MSM on HIV-PrEP in Vietnam was low. However, most expressed willingness to use it, with two-thirds preferring doxyPrEP. Findings highlight the need to disseminate information on doxycycline prophylaxis for bacterial STI prevention, monitoring the usage and evaluating comparative effectiveness of doxyPEP and doxyPrEP to guide implementation efforts in Vietnam.
