Is PEP Right for You?
Who Should Get PEP in Kano?
PEP is for anyone in Kano who has had a possible HIV exposure in the last 72 hours and is currently HIV-negative. The most common situations look like this.
Sex Without Protection
Sex happened without a condom, or it failed, and the other person’s status is either unknown or known to be positive.
Shared Needles
Sharing needles or syringes for any reason creates a direct route for HIV to pass through blood.
Needlestick at Work
A needlestick from a needle used on a patient with HIV, or one whose status is unknown, means a healthcare worker should be assessed urgently for PEP.
After Sexual Assault
After a sexual assault there may have been HIV exposure, and PEP should be part of the emergency response. You deserve protection and care.

Delivery Speed
How Fast Can You Get PEP in Kano?
After a possible exposure, speed is the whole point. Here’s what to expect across the state, so you know before you order.
Times depend on your exact location and the route, so we confirm the timing for your address when you order. Whatever the distance, the goal is the same: PEP in your hands well inside the 72-hour window.
Your Options in Kano
Where Can You Get PEP in Kano?
As the commercial heart of northern Nigeria, Kano has several options. Here’s an honest look at each route, including ours, so you can choose what fits your situation.
Fastest & Most Discreet
PEP Access Delivery
Order PEP online in minutes, with our rapid HIV test kit available as an add-on, and we deliver within hours in Kano city, where we have a hub, and within 24 hours anywhere else in the state. You’re supported by our clinical team from the very first step through to the end of your course. It’s the best fit when speed, privacy and convenience all matter, which after a possible exposure they usually do.
Teaching Hospital
Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital
Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital (AKTH) runs a dedicated HIV clinic at its Prof. S. S. Wali Virology Centre, providing HIV care and antiretroviral treatment. It’s a major reference point for the region, though emergency departments can mean long waits, and timing can vary. Call ahead where you can.
State Specialist Hospitals
Murtala Muhammad & Wase Hospitals
Government facilities such as the Murtala Muhammad Specialist Hospital and the Muhammad Abdullahi Wase Teaching Hospital provide HIV services in the city, and PEP may be available at low or no cost as part of the national program. Availability differs by facility, so confirm before travelling.
Private Clinics & Pharmacies
Private Healthcare
Private clinics and larger pharmacies, common around Nassarawa GRA, Tarauni and Sabon Gari, can sometimes provide PEP, usually faster than a busy public hospital but at a higher cost. Stock isn’t guaranteed, so a quick call first saves you a wasted trip.
What Getting PEP in Kano Really Involves
Specialist HIV care in Kano is concentrated in a few public hospitals like Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital, and they do serious work. The catch is timing. Stock runs low, queues are long, and the clinic that has PEP today might not have it tomorrow, which is hard to plan around when your window is only 72 hours. We deliver within hours in Kano city, where we have a hub, and within 24 hours anywhere else in the state, with timing confirmed when you order. You confirm your exact location when you order, so nothing is left to chance.
Skip the Search. We Come to You.
Wherever you are in Kano, you can order online in minutes or chat to order, and we move PEP to you fast: within hours in Kano city, and within 24 hours anywhere else in the state.
Start Your OrderWhat It Costs
How Much Does PEP Cost in Kano?
It depends on the route you take. Government hospitals taking part in the national program may offer PEP at little or no cost, though availability is not always reliable and waits can be long. Private clinics and pharmacies tend to be quicker but pricier.
It’s worth weighing the true cost of PEP, which is more than the price on the medicine. The time spent hunting for stock, moving between clinics, and waiting to be seen counts too. After a possible HIV exposure, with the 72-hour window already ticking, those delays are what cost you the most.
With PEP Access, the price is clear and covers your whole 28-day course along with delivery and clinical support, so nothing catches you off guard. Check the product page for current pricing, or message us first if you’d prefer to ask.
Testing in Kano
When and Where to Test
Testing for HIV that same night rarely gives you a reliable answer, and that’s down to the window period.
If you start PEP, follow-up HIV testing is done with a fourth-generation test at 6 weeks and again at 3 months after the exposure. A negative result at 3 months is conclusive. A medical laboratory scientist processes these tests at any reputable lab or hospital in Kano, and our team will tell you exactly when to test so the result is meaningful. For the underlying clinical guidance, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention sets out how PEP and follow-up testing should work.
Kano Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can I get PEP delivered in Kano?
We deliver PEP within hours across Kano city, from Kano Municipal, Fagge and Sabon Gari to Nassarawa GRA, Tarauni, Gwale and Ungogo, and within 24 hours at the latest to the more distant towns of the state. When you order, we confirm your exact drop-off and keep you updated while your medicine is on the way.
Can I get PEP delivered to my area of Kano?
Almost certainly yes. We cover the whole state, including Kano Municipal, Fagge, Sabon Gari, Bompai, Nassarawa GRA, Tarauni, Gyadi-Gyadi, Gwale, Dala, Kumbotso, Ungogo and the Bayero University belt, out to Bichi, Gwarzo, Wudil, Gaya and Rano. If you’re unsure about your specific spot, just message us and we’ll confirm straight away.
Do I need an HIV test before starting PEP?
PEP is only for people who are HIV-negative, so a baseline HIV test is required unless you already know your status. That’s why we offer a rapid HIV test kit you can add to your order as a paid add-on, subject to availability, and use at home in minutes. One important point: the 72-hour window comes first, so if anything would delay testing, you start PEP without waiting and test alongside. The rapid kit usually makes that a non-issue, since results come back fast.
Is PEP free in Kano?
It can be. Government hospitals and ART clinics such as the HIV centre at Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital may offer PEP at low or no cost, but availability varies between facilities and waits can be long. Private routes and delivery services like PEP Access charge for the medicine and service, with the trade-off being speed, certainty, and privacy.
Can I get PEP in Kano without going to a hospital?
Yes. With PEP Access you can get PEP without ever stepping into a hospital. You order online or chat to order, our team checks your eligibility, and the medicine comes to you discreetly, with a rapid HIV test kit available as a paid add-on for your baseline test. For a lot of people, skipping a crowded emergency room is the whole reason they choose delivery, especially when every hour counts.
Which Kano hospitals offer PEP?
Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital, with its HIV clinic at the Prof. S. S. Wali Virology Centre, along with the Murtala Muhammad Specialist Hospital, the Muhammad Abdullahi Wase Teaching Hospital, and private clinics around Nassarawa and Tarauni, provide HIV services and may offer PEP. Availability and timing differ between them, so calling ahead is wise. If you’d rather not navigate that, we can simply deliver to you instead.
What if it’s already been more than 72 hours?
If it’s been more than 72 hours, PEP is no longer recommended as effective prevention, though there’s still action worth taking. Speak to a healthcare professional about HIV testing and your next steps. Should you test negative once the window has passed, PrEP, taken before exposure to prevent HIV, may be the right long-term protection. Reach out and we’ll walk you through it.
Is everything kept private?
Yes, completely. We handle every conversation with strict confidentiality, and your medicine arrives in plain packaging that gives nothing away. We understand how sensitive the situations that bring people here can be, and each is met with the respect it deserves.
