About this test

If you've had potential exposure to HIV or just want to check your status, this test provides a fast and reliable way to find out. Get an accurate result as early as four weeks after suspected exposure.

Please note, if you think you've recently been exposed to HIV and require post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP), you should visit your nearest sexual health clinic or A&E as soon as possible (and within 72 hours of exposure).
