Why Home Medical Tests Are Useful

There are a number of conditions, like diabetes, blood pressure being chronically high or low and child drug abuse that can easily be tested and monitored at home. Portable alcohol testing kits are handy for when you aren't sure if you or your partner are within legal blood alcohol limits. Being certain and calling a cab if you are over the limit is better than getting caught at a roadblock or causing an accident. Home medical drug tests, based on hair samples are useful for checking if your child's behavior is being influenced by drugs. Obtaining a hair sample is easy and can even be done without your child's knowledge: this can lessen the drama involved in testing. Always confirm a positive result with a doctor's tes t though. Body fat testers, cholesterol monitors and blood pressure testers are great if you are trying to lose weight safely.
