Check by yourself. Check privately. Check on the go.

The name is the instruction. Check your HIV status NOW — by yourself, in your privacy, on
the go.

Check by yourself

You run the test and you read the result. Start to finish, the process is yours.

Check privately

Nobody has to know you tested unless you decide to tell them.

Check on the go

The kit fits into your day instead of asking you to build a day around it.

How it works

01

Pick up a kit

From a pharmacy, order on Chowdeck, or from the ISN Medical online store.

02

Test at home

Follow the instructions on the leaflet in the box. A small finger prick, a drop of blood, and then you wait 15 minutes.

03

Read it in 15 minutes

Your result is ready in 15–20 minutes. You are the only person who sees it.

Three ways to get one

At a pharmacy

Walk into a pharmacy and ask for CheckNOW at the counter.

On Chowdeck

Open the app, search “CheckNOW”, add to cart. Or order from a pharmacy on our list.

From our online store

Order from the ISN Medical store and have it delivered to your address.

What your result means

A self-test is a screening test. It tells you whether you need to take a next step, and what that step is.

Non-reactive

No HIV antibodies were found. If there was a possible exposure in the last [WINDOW PERIOD], the test may be too early to pick it up — test again after [WINDOW PERIOD] to be sure.

Reactive

This is not a diagnosis. It means you need a confirmatory test at a clinic or laboratory. That step is routine, it is free at most public centres, and starting treatment early means a long, ordinary life.
Want to talk to someone first? [NACA / STATE HELPLINE NUMBER] is free and confidential.

Nobody needs to know

No ID and no prescription at the counter.
Deliveries arrive in plain packaging.
No account or sign-up needed to buy a kit.
Your result stays with you. We never see it.

Want a reminder to test again?

One test tells you about one moment. Many people check every three months. Leave a number or an email and we will send a single reminder.

Phone number or email

Optional. You do not need this to buy a kit.

Questions people actually ask

How accurate is it?

CheckNOW HIV Self-Test has the highest sensitivity, detecting HIV-positive patients with 100% accuracy, and 99% specificity.

Does it hurt?

It is a small finger prick, the same as in a blood sugar check. It is over in a second.

Will anyone know I bought it?

No. You buy it at the counter like any other item, or have it delivered to your location.

What if I tested too soon after an exposure?

CheckNOW can detect HIV antibodies within 3 weeks of exposure. You can test again later, but speak to a healthcare specialist if you are worried in the meantime.

Is there an age limit?

HIV self-testing can be used by people who are 18 years and above.

Don’t wait for a scare to check.

Check by yourself. Check privately. Check on the go.
