F.D.A. Questions Drug Store Tests for Sexually Transmitted Diseases - NYTimes.com: A test to detect two common sexually transmitted diseases is now available in certain drug stores. But the Food and Drug Administration says it may have to come off the shelves.
The product, being sold at most Rite Aid stores, is the first test for chlamydia and gonorrhea to be sold through a drug store, according to Identigene, the test developer. But the F.D.A. on Thursday sent a letter to Identigene saying the test had not been approved by the agency.
