Unlike some of the popular DNA testing services available on the market to either learn about your ancestry, or to find out if you have a chance of getting some sort of disease, PGx testing is your tool for personalized, precision medicine. PGx is the study of how individual patients might respond to specific medications based on the individual’s genetic make-up.
This breakthrough in personalized medicine is about optimal treatment the first time. That’s a potentially huge impact on you. While various factors play into the effects of medication such as gender, age, weight and diet, genetic factors predominate as the single biggest trigger for an adverse reaction.
