Heritage Labs Debuts $19.95 Home A1c Test

Oct 6, 2008

Heritage Labs has introduced the Appraise® Home A1c Kit, a product that allows people with diabetes and pre-diabetes to measure their average blood glucose level over a three- or four-month period. 

Users can take the test at home, then mail it to Heritage Labs' headquarters in Kansas. They can request to have the results delivered to them online via a secured website or through the mail. Processing can take as few as three days. 

The $19.95 FDA-approved kit is already available at Wal-Marts under the Reli-On A1c Test brand name and at Rite-Aid drugstores under the Appraise brand name. 

The A1c (also known as glycated hemoglobin or HbA1c) test has become a staple measurement of the effectiveness of diabetes treatments. By looking at blood glucose levels over a several-month period, the test helps doctors, diabetes educators, and diabetics themselves ignore the distractions caused by sometimes dramatic spikes in daily blood sugar readings.    

More information is available at the Heritage Labs website.
