iHealth COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test is the simplest way to detect SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein antigen. It only takes 4 steps and 15 minutes to complete the test. The test is also non-invasive. You won't need to collect a sample from deep in your nasal cavity to get accurate results.
1、Swab
Brush against the inner wall of both nostrils 5 times each in a circular motion with a non-invasive nasal swab. Our nasal swab is soft, highly absorbent, and only needs to be inserted ½ - ¾ inches so you can test yourself comfortably.

Insert the swab with the sample into the bottom of the tube and stir it in the fluid 15 times. Squeeze the sides of the tube around the swab as you pull it out.
3、Drip
Put 3 drops of the mixed solution onto the sample port of the COVID-19 test card.

iHealth® COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test may take several days to ship. This is not a PCR test and not valid for travel. The manufacturer of the iHealth® COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test requires test kits be stored at temperatures between 36o and 86oF (2o - 30oC). Any extended exposure of the test kit to temperatures beyond this range may affect quality of test results. If you have ordered home delivery of the test kit and expect temperatures in your area to be outside of this range at time of delivery, it is recommended that you arrange for someone to be home at or near time of delivery to receive the test kit.
Can the iHealth® COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test be used in children under two years old?
No, DO NOT use it on anyone under 2 years old.
Is the iHealth® COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test reusable?
No. All the components of iHealth® COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test Kit are not reusable and can only be used once.
Will the test hurt?
No, the nasal swab is not sharp, and it should not hurt. Sometimes the swab can feel slightly uncomfortable or tickly. If you feel pain, please stop the test, and seek advice from a healthcare provider.
How far do I need to insert the Nasal Swab?
Gently insert the entire absorbent tip of the swab (usually 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch) into your nostril.
With children, the maximum depth of insertion into the nostril may be less than ¾ of an inch, and you may need to have a second person to hold the child’s head while swabbing
Why must I swab both nostrils?
In some cases, it has been observed that only one nostril has the detectable virus. Swabbing both nostrils is important because it gives you the best chance of a collecting sufficient sample to generate an accurate result.
Do I have to wait for 15 minutes to read the result?
Yes. After adding the sample to the sample port, do NOT confirm your result before your 15-minute timer is up. The positive indicating line would take as long as 15 minutes to appear, so you may get an incorrect result (false negative) if you do not wait for 15 minutes.
