The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a new over-the-counter COVID-19 antigen test to increase customer testing during the pandemic. The Flowflex COVID-19 Home Test can provide results in a little as 15 minutes.
A COVID-19 antigen test can detect specific proteins in the virus by testing the nasal fluid or a saliva sample. Most at-home antigen tests are authorized for serial testing, which tests the same individual more than once within a few days.
The Flowflex’s authorization will boost the availability of rapid at-home tests and double at-home testing in the U.S. Availability and pricing of at-home COVID-19 tests may vary, check your major local retailer.
To learn more about self-testing and reporting results, visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s website.
