The efficacy of antiretroviral postexposure prophylaxis (PEP) against infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) following occupational exposures has prompted the use of PEP after nonoccupational exposures.

We sought to describe the occurrence and circumstances of HIV seroconversion following nonoccupational PEP.
