Product Description

The BIOSAFE Prostate Screen is a laboratory blood test that measures a chemical substance produced by the prostate gland called Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA). Small amounts of this substance can be measured in the bloodstream by the Prostate Screen. Certain conditions of the prostate may raise the level of PSA in the blood and, while elevated levels of PSA are not harmful, they are an important signal of possible prostate disease. The BIOSAFE Prostate Screen provides you with an accurate, convenient, and inexpensive way to discover you own PSA level. The specimen collection process is quick, easy and virtually painless. Using the special lancet (included in the BIOSAFE Blood Collection Kit), a couple of drops of blood are taken from a nick of a finger and deposited onto a special collection card. The card is then sent to BIOSAFE Laboratories for analysis. BIOSAFE tests your blood sample to see how much PSA is present and then mails the results back to you in an easy-to-read, understandable report. Includes laboratory authorization form; blood collection card in foil pouch; easy to understand instructions; alcohol prep; gauze pad; 2 lancets; adhesive bandage; and postage paid return mail envelope.

5.0 out of 5 stars Saved my dad's life!, February 2, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Biosafe Prostate Test, Purple (1 test) (Health and Beauty)

I had been reading about this prostate test that could be performed at home and finally came across it at drugstore.com through a special promotion. I knew my dad was having problems with sleepless nights due to frequent trips to the bathroom, but Mom and I couldn't get him to a doctor. I bought the BIOSAFE kit and brought it to Dad's house. After he realized that it was only a little finger nick test, he agreed to do the test. In only 7 days we received the results from the lab, and Dad's PSA was high, indicating that he had a prostate problem. We brought the results to the doctor, who performed additional testing and discovered that dad did have prostate cancer, but in the early stages. The doctor told us we were lucky to have caught the cancer when we did, and dad is doing great, thanks to this test.

I was very pleased with the test. It came quickly and the instructions were clear and simple. Once I sent it in to Biosafe Laboratory the results came back within a couple of weeks.

I took the test and mailed in the results. I got a phone call from the company that my test results were very high. I never received the written test results. I made an appointment with a urologist and took the same test using a normal lab. My results were normal.
