OraQuick is a home HIV test approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration in 2012 and released for sale over the counter later that same year.[1][2][3][4]

The test is performed by taking an oral swab of the inside of the human mouth and reported to show results within twenty minutes. It can provide a valid result if taken at 90+ days post exposure.[1]
