Is it true that the US FDA approved lenacapavir (Yeztugo), a twice-yearly injection, for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis in June 2025?
Yes. Multiple peer-reviewed sources state that the FDA approved lenacapavir (Yeztugo) on 18 June 2025 for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis, given as a twice-yearly subcutaneous injection. A Wikipedia article and a drug review confirm the US June approval and twice-yearly PrEP indication without naming the year.
