Lenacapavir is the first twice-daily injectable drug for the prevention of HIV infection, with 99.9% efficacy in clinical trials. Recommended by the CHMP, this treatment simplifies prevention by eliminating the need for daily tablets. In Romania, where the cost of HIV treatment is high, the new PrEP could reduce costs and improve access for vulnerable people. Approved at European level, this drug represents a significant opportunity to transform HIV prevention into public health policy.
