IMPORTANT:
Antibiotics: If you have recently taken antibiotics, wait 4-6 weeks prior to collecting your sample.
Probiotics: Stop probiotics for 3-5 days prior to sampling (recommended for babies below 3)
Sampling:
- Baby: If it's a baby in a diaper, it's a simple swab of the stool directly from the diaper. You may refer to this video for a great visual.
- Toddler/Child/Adult: You can sample directly from a soiled toilet tissue paper. Alternatively, you can add a stool sample collector to your Child or Adult kit at checkout, or purchase one here.
🤏 You only need a very tiny bit of stool swabbed on our dry collection tool. As long as there is a small amount available to the naked eye, we will be able to process your sample.
Check out this article on how much stool should be visible on your collection swab.
