    Important information

    • This product is for informational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, or prevent Lyme disease or any medical condition

    • Results should be interpreted in conjunction with a healthcare professional, ideally alongside a clinical history and symptoms

    • Antibody tests may be unreliable in the first few weeks after exposure because antibodies take time to develop

    • A positive ELISA result should typically be confirmed by a secondary test (e.g. Western blot) to reduce the risk of false positives

    • All samples are processed in UKAS-accredited laboratories
