Top questions pharmacists are getting about COVID-19 tests

Abstract

FDA has been warning consumers not to use several home tests, because they are not FDA-authorized or approved for distribution or use in the United States. Using one of these tests could yield false results and not only lead to an improper diagnosis, but also treatment delays, or a false sense of security. In severe cases, it could result in death, according to FDA. Faulty tests have made it difficult for patients to avoid potential harm from use of at-home COVID-19 tests.
