Episode 613: Doxycycline for post-exposure prophylaxis of sexually transmitted infections

In episode 613, Mike and James discuss with Jessica Kirkwood the evidence for post-exposure prophylaxis of sexually transmitted infections. We go over the 4 RCTs that have looked at the value of a single dose of doxycycline. It does reduce the risk for some specific infections – but as always you need to know the numbers. We give you all of them and much, much more.
