Multiplex test and pep
Hello. I have a quick question. Would taking only a two day dose of pep within 72 hours of an exposure affect the results of a multiplex test taken 2 weeks after exposure?
Thanks

It could, in theory, but I doubt it. Testing at 2 weeks after two doses of nPEP would be entirely too soon to test anyway!
If you had a risk, test at 3 months post exposure for a conclusive result.
That's the best answer I can give you without any details. Most likely, you probably didn't even have a risk, most people that think they didn, did not.

What was your exposure and why did you take only 2 days worth of nPEP? That would do no good in a true risk situation. IN order to be effective, the entire course of nPEP must be completed.
