And when should I test?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h5>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

An antigen test may be recommended for patients that have active symptoms of COVID-19 or may have been recently exposed to COVID-19. An antibody test may be recommended for a person who was previously exposed or had COVID, if they want to know if the body has developed an antibody for COVID-19.<\/p>

An antigen test is designed to detect antigens early on. As the duration of illness increases, an antigen sample may decrease. Specimens collected after day 5 of illness may be more likely to be negative compared to a RT-PCR assay.<\/p>

An antibody test is suggested to detect as early as 2 weeks after symptoms start, peaks at 3 to 4 weeks, and decreases over time.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The possible benefits of a COVID-19 Antibody test are that results are quick and may help a patient reveal if the body has made antibodies to COVID-19. The test gives a qualitative or \u201cyes\/no\u201d result in about 15 minutes. Antibodies may provide additional protection against COVID-19. In addition you may qualify to donate Convalescent donor plasma which may help patients with active COVID-19 infections.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

These tests have an Emergency Authorization Use (EUA) from the FDA. FDA may issue EUA when certain criteria are met, which includes that there are no adequate, approved, or available alternatives, and based on the totality of scientific evidence available. An EUA has not undergone the same type of review as an FDA-approved Test and is not FDA-approved or cleared.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

If you test positive for an antibody test, you should continue to follow CDC guidelines including physical distancing, hand-washing, and mask-wearing. A positive test does NOT mean the patient is immune or protected from getting infected again.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The potential benefits of a COVID-19 antigen test are relatively quick results. An antigen test may also help your doctor make informed recommendations about your care.

We ask that you call ahead to schedule an appointment (same day appointments are available).\n\nIf you are taking the antigen test, when you arrive please park in the curbside pick-up spot and call us at 619-383-6788. The pharmacist will come to your car and administer the test.\n\nThe antibody will be administered in the pharmacy with safety precautions.\n\nFor the antigen test, the pharmacist will insert a cotton swab into one nostril. The swab is then slowly rotated in a circle three to 5 times.\n\nFor the antibody test, the pharmacist will draw a small amount of blood by performing a finger stick prick.\n\nResults will be read in about 10 to 15 minutes.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

A negative test does not mean the patient does not have COVID-19 or antibodies. It is best to discuss this with your provider.\n\nIf an antigen test was performed, you may want to follow up with a PCR test (results are usually given within 1-2 days to up to 1 week) to confirm, if COVID-19 is still suspected based on exposure history together with other clinical findings.\n\nIf you received a negative test with an antibody test, you may have tested too early, or time may lapsed where your body may no longer have antibodies.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
