STI Testing

Oklahoma City Indian Clinic offers a 15-minute rapid test for HIV and Syphilis for asymptomatic patients.

STIs have a range of symptoms, including no symptoms. Some noticeable symptoms may include:

  • Sores or bumps on the genitals or in the oral or rectal area.
  • Painful or burning urination.
  • Unusual or odorous vaginal discharge.
  • Unusual vaginal bleeding.
  • Pain during sex.

STIs can be caused by bacteria, parasites, or viruses. Anyone who is sexually active risks getting or spreading an STI, these factors may increase your risk:

  • Having unprotected sex.
  • Having sexual contact with many partners.
  • Having a history of STIs.
  • Being forced to engage in sexual activity.
  • Injecting drugs.

Getting tested regularly for STIs is an important part of being sexually active and will help you:

  • Know if you have an STI, even if you don’t have any symptoms.
  • Avoid spreading the infection to others.
  • Get treatment early. Untreated STIs can make it difficult or impossible for women to get pregnant.

In order to apply for prescription assistance:

  1. Call (405) 948-4900 ext. 469 or come to the Public Health department at 5208 W. Reno Ave. It is best to call first to make sure the Prescription Assistance Coordinator is in the office.
  2. Bring a copy of your federal tax return or (if you do not file) a copy of current proof of household income for one month and a list of your current medications. Proof of income will need to be resubmitted yearly in order to continue in the program.
  3. If you are determined to be eligible, an application for prescription assistance will be completed.

Eligibility:

Eligibility varies per program. Each individual company will decide if you qualify for their particular program. Rules for qualification can vary within companies by the type of prescription requested.

Please note that the pharmaceutical companies may decide at any time to discontinue their program or change the program to where you no longer qualify. Do not assume that once qualified that you will continue to be qualified. Program approvals, renewals and term lengths of approvals are regulated by the individual companies and vary by program.

Note to patients:

  1. You must be an active patient.
  2. You must have been seen within the past year and keep all your medical appointments.
  3. The only medications that we can help you apply for are medications that have been prescribed by our providers. Otherwise, we can provide you with an application for your outside doctor to complete.
  4. You may need to use a written prescription to purchase the medication prescribed as it may take up to four weeks or longer for the medication to reach OKCIC. Some medications are shipped to the pharmacy and you will be notified that it has arrived. Other companies will send the medication directly to your home. Please keep all paperwork received with the medication so you will know how to re-order. There are also a few programs that will send you a pharmacy card to use with your prescription at any retail pharmacy for free medication. EACH PROGRAM VARIES.
  5. You MUST notify the Prescription Assistance Coordinator when you have four weeks of medication left so that a timely application for a refill can be made.
    • *Please note that due to the large volume of patients using Patient Assistance Programs, there may be a delay in pharmaceutical companies processing applications and prescriptions are not guaranteed to be received within that time frame. Also, some medications that are received at home have a different re-ordering policy that must be adhered to.

Oklahoma City Indian Clinic DOES NOT have any control over when the medications are shipped, when applications are processed or if a patient is approved for the program. This program is a public service provided by private drug manufacturers. The Prescription Assistance Coordinator only helps you utilize this service.

What do you know about HIV/AIDS?

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus spread through certain bodily fluids:
  • Blood
  • Semen (cum and pre-cum)
  • Rectal fluids
  • Vaginal fluids
  • Breast milk
HIV is not transmitted by:
  • Air or water
  • Saliva, sweat or tears
  • Closed-mouth kissing
  • Insects or pets
  • Sharing toilets, food or drinks

Ways to prevent HIV infection:

  • Abstinence (not having sex)
  • Limiting your number of sexual partners
  • Never injecting drugs and sharing needles or “works”
  • Always use condoms the right way every time you have sex
  • You may be able to take medication (Truvada) for PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis)
If you are living with HIV, you can prevent passing it to others. The most important step is to take medication the right way, every day to treat HIV and greatly reduce your chances of transmitting HIV to your partners. The only way to know if you have HIV is to be tested.  Knowing your HIV status helps you make choices that prevent you from getting HIV or from transmitting HIV. To get an HIV test:
  • Ask your provider
  • Visit gettested.cdc.gov
  • Text KNOWIT (566948) with your zip code in the message
  • Call 1-800-CDC-INFO (1-800-232-4636)
  • Visit hiv.gov  

Who should get an HIV test:

  • Everyone between the ages of 13 to 64 should have at least one test in their lifetime
  • Pregnant women or thinking about becoming pregnant
  • Men who have sex with other men
  • Anyone having sex with an HIV positive partner
  • Anyone who had sex with more than one partner since their last HIV test
  • Anyone having injected drugs and shared needles or “works” (water or cotton) with others
  • Anyone exchanging sex for drugs or money
  • Anyone who has been diagnosed or sought treatment for another sexually transmitted disease (STD)
  • Anyone diagnosed with hepatitis or tuberculosis (TB)
  • Anyone who has had sex with someone who could answer yes to any of the above or someone whose sexual history you do not know
You should be tested at least once a year if you continue to do any of the above. Sexually active gay or bisexual men would benefit from more frequent testing (every 3 to 6 months).

Before having sex with a new partner you should both be tested.
