Review Your ColoTest® Results:
Within 1-10 minutes, read the result window of the cassette.
Follow the reading instructions below to identify whether your result is positive, negative or invalid. For positive results, consult a doctor.
Two lines in the result window: The specimen contains a detectable level of blood.
A negative result indicates ColoTest® did not detect invisible blood in the stool. ColoTest® should be used as an annual screening method.
2 Bleeding in the digestive systems may be intermittent (not continuous). If concerned, it is recommended to perform the test on three different days with new feces samples each time to increase the chance of detecting fecal occult blood.
