What is DoxyPEP?
DoxyPEP involves taking a single dose of doxycycline within 72 hours after condomless sex to help prevent bacterial STIs such as chlamydia, syphilis, and gonorrhoea. It’s currently used as an STI prevention tool, particularly for men who have sex with men and transgender women at higher risk of exposure.
What are the Symptoms of DoxyPEP ?
Symptoms vary but often include:
You’re unsure what’s going on and want a doctor’s opinion.
Your condition isn’t listed under our specific treatment categories.
Your condition is listed but complicated for other reasons.
If you already know what you need help with you can book directly through our Condition-Based Services.

Treatment depends on the cause and severity of your symptoms:
Medical emergencies
Life-threatening symptoms
Situations requiring a physical exam or hands-on assessment
If you're experiencing a serious medical issue — including chest pain, difficulty breathing, or mental health crises — call 111 immediately and request an ambulance.
For urgent or complex care that needs an in-person assessment, we recommend visiting your regular GP, after-hours clinic, or nearest hospital.
