Abstract
This study examined PrEP initiation as a predictor of increased alcohol-related sexual behaviors among young men who have sex with men (MSM). PrEP initiation was associated with increased alcohol-related sexual behaviors. Findings identify a high-risk period for young MSM with implications for interventions targeting alcohol-related sexual risk.
