Product details
Check for H. Pylori to see if you might have a stomach ulcer.
Take this test as a quick and easy way to screen for the presence of H.pylori bacteria in your stools.
H. Pylori in stools can indicate an infection. This is very common but does not always cause symptoms. However, the presence of H. Pylori increases the risk of digestive issues such as heartburn, indigestion, or gastritis (inflammation of the stomach). In some people, it can lead to ulcers developing in the lining of the stomach and the first part of the small intestine.

Hazards and Cautions
Testing is for screening purposes only.
This test can be used to screen for Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) antigens in a stool sample, which can lead to stomach ulcers, based on a simple home self-test.
It has been designed by experts to qualitatively detect Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) antigens in stools, giving you a positive or negative result for their presence.
Whilst a positive result will give you a good indication of having had an infection of this bacteria, you’ll need a secondary analytical test or consultation with a healthcare professional to confirm the status of your bowel health.
