How to Get Truvada Online in Vigo

Yes, you can get a doctor's assessment for Truvada online in Vigo, Spain. Hi-Doctor connects you with an EU-licensed doctor for a private, online consultation. For a flat fee of 35 €, you can have your case reviewed, and if appropriate, receive a valid electronic prescription in under 24 hours. This prescription is designed for EU-wide recognition under Directive 2011/24/EU.

How it works: get your consultation in 4 steps

  1. Fill the online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes) and pay the 35 € consultation fee.
  2. An EU-licensed doctor reviews your case in private. If the doctor determines the treatment is not appropriate, your fee is refunded automatically, so there is no risk.
  3. If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) in your secure Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
  4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone and present it to a pharmacist. In Spain, Hi Doctor connects with the local prescription system: if the doctor approves, the prescription goes through the country's own prescription system, and the pharmacist reviews it and decides whether to dispense. They may dispense a locally-marketed equivalent or refuse.

Who qualifies for treatment

Hi-Doctor's EU-licensed doctors consider Truvada exclusively for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in eligible HIV-negative patients. During the online consultation, the doctor reviews your medical history and requires recent confirmation of a negative HIV test before considering a prescription. They assess for contraindications and ensure PrEP is the appropriate and safe option for you.

What Truvada actually does (and doesn't do)

Truvada, a combination of emtricitabine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, works by blocking an enzyme HIV uses to replicate itself. This significantly reduces the risk of HIV infection when taken consistently. It is highly effective for PrEP when used as directed.

However, Truvada does not treat existing HIV infection. It also does not protect against other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) or prevent pregnancy. Consistent and correct use, alongside regular HIV testing, is crucial for its efficacy as PrEP.

Side effects and when to stop

Common side effects of Truvada can include nausea, diarrhoea, headache, and fatigue. These often improve over time. More serious, but rare, side effects can affect the kidneys or bones.

It is important to discuss any concerning symptoms with your doctor. You should stop taking Truvada and seek medical advice immediately if you develop symptoms of an allergic reaction, severe kidney problems, or signs of new HIV infection (e.g., fever, rash, swollen glands). Continuing PrEP if you are HIV-positive is not appropriate.
