Before you search for a self-test option, you may want to know....

Which self-test is available?
chevron pointing down

The INSTI HIV Self-Test made by bioLytical Laboratories in British Columbia.

Is the test accurate and approved?
chevron pointing down

This is a screening test that is over 99% accurate and was approved and licensed by Health Canada in November 2020. The INSTI HIV self-test is currently the only self-test approved for use in Canada.

If you test positive (reactive result), it means that you likely have HIV but this needs to be confirmed with a laboratory-based confirmatory test. You will need to see your doctor or go to a health care provider for this confirmatory testing.

Is the test simple to use?
