Detects RNA from SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19
This saliva PCR test provides an accurate and reliable method for diagnosing COVID-19. An individual without symptoms of COVID-19 and who is not shedding SARS-CoV-2 virus would expect to have a negative (Not Detected) result in this assay. A negative result happens when the SARS-CoV-2 primers do not match the genetic material in the sample and there is no amplification. This means the sample did not contain any virus.
Easily collect a saliva sample from the comfort and privacy of home
Your COVID saliva test kit includes everything required for your easy spit sample. Spend as little as 2 minutes spitting into the self-collection device. We provide detailed instructions and a prepaid FedEx standard overnight shipping label to return your sample to the lab.
Most COVID-19 tests are done with nasopharyngeal swabs that some people describe as tickling or even stabbing their brain. Considering how invasive the typical COVID-19 swab test is, your kiddo is sure to put up a fight — and even shed some tears. Our at-home saliva COVID test, recommended for individuals 5+, is non-invasive and painless.
An FDA authorized test delivered directly to your door
The 4U Health COVID-19 PCR Saliva Test utilizes a saliva collection device and COVID test that have received Emergency Use Authorization from the FDA. Your kit employs the gold standard RT-PCR technology to diagnose active infections of the virus. Results are typically available within 24-48 hours after the lab receives your specimen.
Our tests bring hospital-grade results to your home
Once we receive your test, we’ll send your physician-reviewed results typically within approximately 24 to 48 hours. 4U Health at-home test reports are both accurate and easy to read. The best part is we only work with federal and state-certified laboratories.

Can I use the COVID-19 At-Home Saliva PCR Test for travel purposes?
This is a FDA emergency use authorized PCR Saliva COVID test. PCR is the preferred COVID-19 testing method for many travel requirements. Many destinations require negative results within a very narrow timeframe. Included in your digital results will be a printable version that you can share. We recommend that you reach out to your destination’s government for their specific requirements and timelines before making your purchase.
While we are not able to provide an exact estimate of when you will receive your results, keep in mind the typical turnaround time for results. As a reminder:
- Order Delivery: We estimate that you will receive your order within 2-5 business days of placing your order. You also have the option of purchasing expedited shipping to your home for an additional fee.
- Returning Sample to Lab: Check with your local FedEx for pick-up and drop-off schedules. Once you ship your sample Monday-Thursday, our partner lab should receive the sample overnight by 10:30am the next business day.
- Results: Testing is batch performed Tuesday and Friday afternoons. For samples received by the lab on Monday and Tuesday, results are typically available late Tuesday afternoon. For samples received Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, results are typically available late Friday afternoon.
If you are concerned that your schedule is too tight to allow for unforeseen delays, we recommend that you check for other local testing options.
