You know the feeling: In the stress of everyday life, many people put their health problems on the back burner. This risks symptoms being overlooked or not taken seriously enough. Are my cholesterol levels normal? Am I always tired because I suffer from iron deficiency? Does my stool contain hidden blood? Many people want quick and medically reliable answers to questions like these.

With Veroval®, HARTMANN - one of the leading manufacturers of products for doctors, hospitals, and pharmacies - has developed a wide range of medical self-tests for use at home. Veroval® self-tests are easy to use, and reliable results are available within minutes.

With Veroval® self-tests from Hartmann, you can check numerous different bodily values or the accumulation of various substances in the body, for example. We have added a selection of these practical rapid tests to our range. Here is an overview:

Veroval® self-tests: Stomach screening

Rapid test for detecting the bacterium Helicobacter pylori: The stomach bacterium Helicobacter pylori is demonstrably the most important risk factor for inflammation of the stomach lining (gastritis) and stomach ulcers. With the Veroval® “Stomach screening” self-test, you can quickly and reliably find out whether you carry the bacterium and whether you should consider further preventive measures. All you need is one drop of blood from your fingertip and 10 minutes.

Veroval® self-tests: Intestinal screening

Rapid test for detecting hidden blood in stool: Hidden blood in stool can have many causes. One possible cause is colorectal cancer at an early stage. Specialists recommend regular testing from the age of 45. The Veroval® “Intestinal screening” self-test can quickly and reliably check whether invisible blood is present in the stool and whether further preventive measures should be considered.

Veroval® self-tests: Cholesterol

Rapid test for determining an elevated cholesterol level: A high cholesterol level is demonstrably an important risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis and related conditions such as high blood pressure and heart attacks. Age, diet, and lack of exercise can further increase cholesterol levels. The Veroval® “Cholesterol” self-test quickly and reliably checks whether the cholesterol level is within an acceptable range or whether the user should change their diet and lifestyle.

Veroval® self-tests: Do antibiotics help?

Rapid test for detecting a bacterial infection during a cold: Antibiotics are a very effective type of medicine. However, they only work against bacteria, not viruses. Determining whether a cold is caused by a virus or bacteria is difficult. With the "Do antibiotics help?" self-test from Veroval®, you can quickly and reliably find out whether a bacterial infection is present and whether using antibiotics is appropriate.

Veroval® self-tests: Iron deficiency

Rapid test for detecting a low iron concentration: Iron plays an important role in supplying the body with oxygen and in energy metabolism. Typical signs of too little iron include fatigue, paleness, or headaches. The Veroval® “Iron deficiency” self-test can quickly and reliably check whether the symptoms mentioned above may be caused by iron deficiency.

Veroval® self-tests: Urinary tract infection

Rapid test for detecting white blood cells, nitrite, and protein: When bladder symptoms are unclear, such as slight burning during urination or abdominal pain, the question often arises whether this is already a urinary tract infection or merely temporary bladder irritation. The Veroval® “Urinary tract infection” self-test quickly and reliably indicates whether traces of substances typically associated with an infection are present in the urine.

Veroval® self-tests: Gluten intolerance

Rapid test for detecting celiac disease: Frequent, unexplained gastrointestinal complaints - such as bloating or diarrhea - may be caused by an intolerance to gluten, a protein found in many foods. The Veroval® “Gluten intolerance” self-test can quickly and reliably check whether the symptoms are caused by gluten intolerance and can therefore be alleviated by changing the diet.

Veroval® self-tests: Allergy detection

Rapid test for detecting cat hair, grass pollen, and dust mite allergies: Many people suffer from typical allergy symptoms such as sneezing, a blocked nose, or burning eyes without knowing exactly what they are allergic to. The Veroval® “Allergy detection” self-test can determine whether you have an allergy and which of the three allergens your body reacts to.

Veroval® self-tests: Pregnancy

Early test with week determination: Pregnant - yes or no? For this important question, women certainly want a quick and reliable answer. Determining the week of pregnancy is also important. The Veroval® “Early pregnancy test with week determination” can detect from as early as the 10th day whether a pregnancy is present - and also which week of pregnancy the expectant mother is in.

Pregnancy self-test

Veroval® self-tests: Fertility

Rapid test for detecting sperm concentration in semen: Couples who are involuntarily childless often wonder about the cause. If the cause lies with the man, a below-average sperm count in the semen may be responsible. With the Veroval® “Fertility” self-test, men can quickly and reliably find out whether their semen contains enough sperm for conception.

Fertility self-test

Veroval® self-tests: Chlamydia

Rapid test for detecting a chlamydia infection: Chlamydia trachomatis is a sexually transmitted type of bacteria that causes infections in the urogenital tract. Chlamydia infections are usually symptom-free, but they can also cause inflammation of the eyes and urinary tract as well as arthritis. Untreated infections often result in infertility and increase the risk of ectopic pregnancies and premature births. The “Chlamydia” self-test from Veroval® can determine whether an infection with the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis is present.

Veroval® self-tests: Vaginal infection screening

Rapid test for determining pH value: A healthy vaginal flora is characterized by a slightly acidic pH value between 3.8 and 4.5. If the pH value is higher, this indicates a disruption of the vagina's micro-ecological balance, for example caused by bacteria or fungi. This is usually accompanied by symptoms such as discharge, a fishy odor, itching, burning, or dryness. The “Vaginal infection screening” self-test from Veroval® quickly and reliably tells the user whether their vaginal pH value is above 4.5.

Veroval® self-tests: Alcohol

Rapid test for determining the alcohol content in exhaled air>: After consuming alcoholic beverages, people often wonder whether they are fit to drive. From a blood alcohol level of 0.2 ‰ (per mille), the ability to operate a vehicle is impaired. The Alcohol rapid test can quickly determine the approximate blood alcohol level and whether the user is allowed to drive.

Alcohol self-test

Veroval® self-tests: Drugs

Multi-rapid test for detecting 6 different drugs: Drugs are psychoactive substances that influence the behavior and mood of the respective consumer. However, consuming one or more drugs entails significant risks. In the long term, impaired physical health and psychosocial problems may be expected as a result of possible addiction. The Drug multi-rapid test can quickly and reliably detect signs of amphetamines, benzodiazepines (sedatives), cocaine, marijuana (THC), methadone, and opiates using a urine sample. The test indicates which drugs have been consumed.
