You can't. the only thing you can do is be careful to avoid contracting it. Always practice safe sex and only have sex with partners you know and trust; don't do intravenous drugs, or at least use a fresh, sterile needle every time; make sure you use reputable providers if you need to use any medical product derived from blood or blood serum.


PROTECTION
The best way to avoid A.I.D.S is to stick to one partner only, and please be loyal to her or him, and yes use a condom it is dead cheap.

The key to preventing AIDS is awareness and information. The virus can be transmitted sexually, such that it is vital to avail self protection and maintain monogamous sexual relationship. The monagamous relationship will help to trace should a positive ELISA test happen. Discrimination is not a proactive solution in preventing AIDS as what is happening in China now. If this would continue, infected people will no longer seek medical help fearing that they will be labeled as HIV infected and be banned from selected establishments.

The only 100% fool proof way to prevent contracting HIV is to not have sexual intercourse.

When entering into a new sexual relationship, it is not unreasonable for each person to get tested for sexually transmitted diseases before having sex for the first time. Use of condoms is also highly effective.
The answer everyone likes most is "get tested with your partner." This isn't a bad idea, but HIV/AIDS can take 6-9 months to be diagnosable and none of us can ever be ABSOLUTELY positive that our significant other is 100% faithful, so there are really only two safe options:

A) Use condoms. Every time.

B) Don't have sex.

See a Doctor immediately. He/She will probably prescribe some antibiotics in order to dispatch the disease before it has a chance to set in.

Prophylaxis used to treat HIV patients?

I hope that I am interpreting the wording of this question correctly. Please do not hesitate to send a follow-up question if necessary. Prophylaxis can refer to several things as it relates to HIV infection. The definition of prophylaxis is "a measure designed to preserve health." Condoms are considered a prophylaxis for HIV infection. They help prevent the spread of the virus by restricting the transfer of infected body fluid during sex. PEP (Post Exposure Prophylaxis) is used when a patient is suspected of having been exposed to HIV. PEP consists of prescribing hefty doses of HIV medications within 72 hours of exposure to prevent HIV infection.
