This comprehensive HIV test is over 99.5% accurate, 4 weeks following exposure. It seeks both Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) 1 and 2, as well as the early marker - the p24 Antigen.

This test looks for the presence of both HIV 1 and HIV 2 antibodies, and also for antibodies to a part of the virus particle known as p24. This virus protein is detectable in the blood before antibodies are made to the HIV particle, meaning it allows for earlier detection of HIV if it is present. Once established, the p24 antibodies diminish - so the p24 test a test for early diagnosis, whereas HIV antibodies when present suggest an established infection with HIV.

This test is NOT available as a finger prick BUT is available as a vacutainer sample collection option. You can make your own arrangement for blood collection, or choose to visit a Circle Hospital or Superdrug store, or to opt for a Nurse Home Visit. Select option at checkout.

Special Instructions: Appropriate from 28 days post-contact

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great service and product. The turn around is brilliant (mostly - there was a glitch during the early part of the Covid pandemic, but that seems to be resolved now). Tests are recognised by the medical profession so I am able to use the results to get the treatment I need without further tests.

I had various questions which they answered via email/webchat and the timing of getting a kit, sending it back and getting the results was good.
