The first long-acting injectable for HIV prevention has now been approved for use, the FDA announced on Monday.
Long-acting injectable cabotegravir (CAB-LA, branded as Apretude) is administered as a monthly injection for the first 2 months, then every 2 months afterwards. It is the first long-acting injectable for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). The drug is approved for adults and adolescents weighing at least 77 lb.
This is the first option for HIV PrEP that does not involve taking a daily pill, noted FDA's Director of the Division of Antivirals in the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, Debra Birnkrant, MD.
She added that this will help "high-risk individuals and certain groups where adherence to daily medication has been a major challenge or not a realistic option."
AVAC: Global Advocacy for HIV Prevention also applauded the news.
"With as few as six shots per year, this highly effective form of injectable PrEP can help bend the curve of the HIV epidemic – but only if its approval is accompanied by strategic, effective and equitable rollout that transforms the growing list of HIV prevention options into real and accessible choices for the people who need prevention most," said AVAC Executive Director, Mitchell Warren, in a statement.
Of the 1.2 million individuals in the U.S. who are recommended for PrEP, only 25% are actually prescribed it, according to the FDA...
...CAB-LA's approval was based on two randomized trials, one in [men, including men who identify as women] and one in [women]. (Continued...)

"Long-acting" must not mean what it used to mean if you need an injection every two months.
How about just asking them to stop the incredibly promiscuous sex? Virtually every homosexual I know is HIV and it is slowly killing them. All the drugs have done is drag out the process and, ironically, allowed them to infect more people. But most of them simply won't engage in any kind of self-control and are wantonly promiscuous.
But if you tell them so, you are labeled a homophobe.
You better read up on mRNA vaccines.
How about requiring scientists to prove HIV actually exists and causes some sort of disease? First, they should purify and isolate the microscopic particles from a sample without contaminating it first. Then, take these participles without adding anything else that causes a reaction in the human body and recreate whatever disease in a healthy host. Should easy, right?
This has been a colossal money sinkhole for many decades. For the past two years, we've seen so many PhD's and MD's unable to tell the truth or to standup against tyrannical controllers. So, their credentials should no longer give them a free pass. The FDA's stamp of approval is meaningless since Big Pharm controls them.
