Knowing your HIV status is one of the most important steps you can take for your health and the health of those around you. Nepal has seen a steady rise in HIV awareness, yet many people still delay testing due to stigma or lack of access to private services. Medex Neo Clinic in Naxal, Kathmandu offers a completely confidential, fast, and professional HIV testing service — with no referral needed and no judgment.
Which HIV Tests Does Medex Offer?
We offer three types of HIV tests, chosen based on your exposure timing and needs. Early detection allows for immediate treatment that keeps the virus undetectable and untransmittable.
1. 4th Generation HIV Combo Test
Detects both antigen and antibody, identifying HIV as early as 18 days after exposure — the most reliable early-detection test available.
2. Rapid HIV Test
A finger-prick test delivering results within 20 minutes. Ideal for routine screening or when you need a quick answer.
3. HIV RNA PCR Test
The earliest possible detection window, identifying HIV from just 10 days post-exposure. Recommended after a recent high-risk event.
