RapidTest provides a wide range of health screening kits that can be used privately at home. Depending on the test, you will collect a small sample such as blood from a finger prick, urine, a swab or a stool sample.

Each kit includes step-by-step instructions explaining how to collect your sample and read your result. Our rapid tests do not need to be returned to a laboratory, so you can view your result at home in minutes.

Always read the individual product description and instructions before testing, as the sample type and testing process vary between kits.

Our range includes at-home tests for sexual health, men’s health, fertility, digestive health, general health markers, seasonal illnesses and travel-related infections.

You can purchase individual tests for a specific health concern or choose one of our bundles to screen for several related markers at once. Each product page clearly explains what the test screens for, which sample is required and who the test is intended for.

If you are unsure which test is most suitable, our customer support team can help you understand the available options. We cannot diagnose symptoms or recommend medical treatment.

The accuracy of each test varies, so you should check the individual product page and instructions for the performance information relating to that specific kit.

For the most reliable result, it is important to test at the appropriate time, collect the sample correctly and follow every step of the instructions carefully. Testing too early, using an insufficient sample or reading the result outside the stated time window may affect the result.

No screening test is 100% accurate. A rapid test result should not be treated as a medical diagnosis, and results may need to be confirmed by a healthcare professional or laboratory.

Most RapidTest kits provide a result at home in approximately 10–15 minutes, although the exact processing time varies between products.

You do not normally need to post your sample back or wait for a laboratory appointment. The correct reading time will be shown clearly in your kit instructions. Reading a result too early or too late may make it unreliable, so always follow the timing specified for your test.

A positive, reactive or abnormal result does not always confirm that you have a particular condition. You should follow the guidance included with your test and contact an appropriate healthcare professional for advice and confirmatory testing.

Depending on the result, this may mean contacting your GP, sexual health clinic, pharmacist or another suitable healthcare service.

Do not begin, stop or change any medication based solely on an at-home screening result. Seek urgent medical assistance if you feel seriously unwell or have severe symptoms.

It ultimately depends on the test and also the risk profile you are as a user.

Some tests may be used as part of a regular health-check routine, while others are most useful after a specific event, possible exposure, new symptoms or a change in risk. For example, STI testing may be appropriate after a new sexual partner or unprotected sex, while tests such as PSA or bowel health screening may be taken periodically depending on your age, risk factors and advice from a healthcare professional.

Testing more frequently is not always more useful, particularly where a condition has a window period and may not be detectable immediately. Always check the guidance on the individual product page and in the kit instructions. Speak to a healthcare professional if you are unsure how often to test or have ongoing symptoms or concerns.
