Résumé
We explored knowledge, beliefs, and acceptability of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention with reference to stigma among people who inject drugs (PWID) in two predominately rural U.S. states. We conducted interviews with 65 current or former PWID aged 18 years or older and living in Arizona or Indiana. Most (63%) of the interviewees were not aware of PrEP. They often confused PrEP with HIV treatment, and many believed that PrEP was only for sexual risk or gay sexual risk. Once they understood that PrEP was recommended for PWID, the participants held a positive view of PrEP and felt that a once-daily pill was feasible. Experiences of stigma about drug use remained a crucial barrier to accessing healthcare and PrEP. This was often linked with anticipated or expressed homophobia. PrEP interventions among PWID must focus on education and the confluence of stigmas in which PWID find themselves when considering PrEP. Exploramos el conocimiento, las creencias y la aceptabilidad de la profilaxis previa a la exposición (PrEP) para la prevención del VIH con referencia al estigma entre las personas que inyectan drogas (PWID) en dos Estados Unidos predominantemente rurales. estados. Realizamos entrevistas con 65 PWID actuales o anteriores de 18 años o más y viviendo en Arizona o Indiana. Más (63%) de los entrevistados no estaban al tanto de la PrEP. A menudo confundieron la PrEP con el tratamiento del VIH, y muchos creían que la PrEP era sólo por riesgo sexual o riesgo sexual gay. Una vez que entendieron que la PrEP se recomendaba para PWID, los participantes tenían una visión positiva de la PrEP y sentían que una vez-píldora diaria era factible. Las experiencias de estigma sobre el consumo de drogas siguieron siendo una barrera crucial para acceder a la atención médica y a la PrEP. Esto a menudo estaba relacionado con la homofobia anticipada o expresada. Las intervenciones de la PrEP entre PWID deben centrarse en la educación y la confluencia de estigmas en los que PWID se encuentra al considerar la PrEP.
