Yes, actually. If you think you have been exposed to HIV there is a treatment called HIV prophylaxis. This can greatly reduce the chances of HIV forming and if it doesn't then it can lessen the effects of HIV. There can be a myriad of side effects such as headaches, lethargy, and nausea. The treatment should be started right after suspected exposure and lasts up to a month. It is also expensive and limited in availability. Good Luck!
