Is there a chance that you may be HIV positive? And are you unlikely to visit a doctor’s office, clinic, hospital or other healthcare setting to be tested?

You can now test yourself and get a preliminary (or screening) result in 20-40 minutes—in the privacy of your own home.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the OraQuick In-Home HIV Test, a home-use HIV test kit that does not require sending a sample to a laboratory for analysis. The kit, which tests a sample of fluid from your mouth, is approved for sale in stores and online to anyone age 17 and older.
