HIV exposure should be taken very seriously. If a person knows they have been exposed to HIV they should seek immediate medical attention. It is possible to prescribe a medication regimine after exposure called "PEP"(Post Exposure Prophylaxis). "PEP" must be prescribed within 72 hours of exposure to be effective. "PEP" is not effective if started any later.

If more than 72 hours has passed and the exposure results in the individual testing positive for HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus), there are many effective treatments available. Seek the attention of an HIV specialist in your area for more information.

Can they tell if what drugs you have taken?

Many drugs with similar effects metabolize to the same thing in the body, so "They" can't necessarily tell exactly what drugs you've taken. However, it's pretty easy to tell the general class of drugs you've taken. If you've been ingesting a cannabinoid, for example, they may not be able to tell exactly how the hydrogens were arranged, but that you've been getting high? You betcha they can tell.
