HerpeSelect® Tests

Ask for it by name

HerpeSelect is the brand name of HSV diagnostic test kits manufactured by Focus Diagnostics. Make certain that your healthcare provider orders an FDA-cleared type-specific test (glycoprotein-G based assay) for your herpes test.

Some healthcare providers can test in their office with the HerpeSelect Express rapid HSV-2. Should this test be available the physician will obtain a sample from a finger stick and apply it to the HerpeSelect Express device and results can be provided in about 15 minutes.

HerpeSelect assays are designed to aid in the diagnosis of:

• Sexually active adults, with or without symptoms, who could transmit the virus to a sexual partner.
• Expectant mothers, to reduce the risk acquiring an infection near labor and transmitting the infection during labor.
