SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza A+B Antigen Combo Rapid Test (Nasal Swab)

Amazing tests, seen lots about the new Flu A in the news and so when my son got ill with temp of 39.9c and awful headache I thought it would be useful to know what it was as he has yet to have covid. The tests came next day (Amazon Prime you are a legend) and within minutes it showed he had tested positive for Flu A. These tests are easy to use and just like the standard Covid ones that use the cotton bud up nose but with much higher quality tube and nozzle to squeeze sample out with. It was useful to have the Covid test included too and very helpful to know what caused the illness (which included a very high temp for 3 days, awful headaches and shivers) because it impacts how long he is in quarantine for. I’ve ordered a spare test to keep at home too.

After coming down with typical winter symptoms and not knowing whether it was COVID, flu, or just a nasty cold, I ordered this combo test kit to avoid potentially spreading whatever I had at the office. Definitely glad I did! The package arrived next day with clear instructions and individually wrapped test components. Inside were five complete test kits, each containing a dual-purpose test device (one side for COVID, one for Flu A+B), nasal swab, extraction buffer, and dropper. The testing process was straightforward – similar to the COVID tests we've all become familiar with. The nasal swab was comfortable enough, and I appreciated that one swab works for both tests rather than needing separate samples. Just had to swirl it in the solution and apply drops to both sides of the test device. Results appeared within the promised 15 minutes, with clear control lines showing the test was working properly. In my case, it showed positive for Influenza A but negative for COVID-19, which explained my symptoms and meant I could take appropriate medication while isolating for a shorter period than I would have needed for COVID. The accuracy seems reliable – my partner tested negative on both counts despite our close contact, which aligned with her lack of symptoms. The included instructions clearly explain how to interpret the various combinations of lines (positive for COVID only, flu only, both, or neither). Price-wise, these were about £7 per test, which seems reasonable considering you're effectively getting two tests in one. Given that knowing whether you have COVID or flu impacts isolation periods and treatment options, I found it worth the investment. My only minor criticism would be that the plastic waste feels excessive, but I suppose that's unavoidable for sterile medical testing products. For anyone navigating winter illness season, especially those who need to make informed decisions about work attendance or family visits, these combo tests are genuinely useful. I've kept the remaining tests in the medicine cabinet for when the inevitable next round of symptoms hits our household.

Worked perfectly just as it should have. Really simple to use just the same as the covid tests. I had already done a covid test for my son so I knew he didn't have it but wanted to know if he had influenza due to the extremely severe tonsillitis and bronchitis he's had for a week now. Thankfully he didn't have flu and is recovering at home until he is well enough to go back to school as soon as this awful virus is on its way out. Knocked a star off because a fiver for one test is extortionate. You can get a whole box of covid tests for that.

18 year old went to a big event with lots of people on a Friday night he was ILL Monday morning high temp vomiting stomach pains headache just to name a few so I tested him with a Covid test which came back negative so I ordered this test off Amazon on the Monday morning for same day delivery and turns out it was Flu A. There is 1 test in the packet so I am going to order another one as I now have symptoms similar to his. But I highly recommend it’s easy to use 5 turns in each nostril in to the solution then 3 drops into the test kit each side and the results show almost straight away.

I was on my way back from America with something starting whilst I was on the plane! By the time I got home I knew it was either flu or Covid! Ordered this test kit and it arrived the next day. It quickly showed that I was positive for flu which I had started to suspect more than Covid as I’d been getting more ill by the minute! Very simple and easy to use. Just like the Covid tests, simply swab around each nostril 10 times, prepare the liquid in the little squeezy bottle and drip a few drops on the test panel. Wait 10 mins, or usually more like two, unless you’ve got a dud test, and that’s it. Very quick and easy. Then you can go and buy lots of overpriced paracetamol that you’d usually pay 50p for just because it says “flu” on the box… But seriously, it gives you peace of mind and there’s no need to hassle the non existent service at the doctor’s surgery!

A mixed review: The Good: Amazon Prime delivery an essential for our current needs. Test outcome is very clear. The less good: 1.Written instructions on paper are unrealistically small. AND: 2. We needed the test immediately given travel arrangements...BUT the packaging showed that the use by date had EXPIRED. For other buyers suggest you check!

Worked super well. Positive nearly instantly (granted, I had a 39 fever and thought my bones were going to rip out of my body). Tested negative with Covid with a separate test so I bought this. Super flu is going around (Dec 2025), which is influenza A. Amazing little test, wish they had them at the GP! Make sure to read the instructions, but it’s exactly like the Covid self tests we all used to do in 2020. Don’t flood the casette - three drops in each only!

Excellent product. I wasn’t feeling well. Thought it might be flu or covid. Say this test. Came the next day could have paid £1.99 for same day delivery but didn’t bother. Turns out I have flu. Definitely recommend. Easy to use, quick delivery and quick result. The line is very faint but there.
