Answer
Although you can stop PrEP anytime, it is important to realise that as soon as you stop, you lose your protection against HIV.
If you are taking PrEP daily and stop taking it, it takes up to 7 days again when taken daily before you are protected against HIV.
If you are taking PrEP on demand, you should not stop taking it until you have finished your 2-1-1 dose. Stopping PrEP on demand early means you are not protected against HIV.
