Refer a Patient for Pharmacogenetic Testing
Pharmacogenetic testing is shaping the future of personalized medicine. These tests can help healthcare providers like you to improve drug effectiveness, reduce side effects, and customize treatment based on a patient’s genetic insights.
Although pharmacogenetic testing offers incredible benefits, not all genetic factors or medications are covered. Additionally, as new studies emerge, interpretations of results might change.
Integrating pharmacogenetic testing with other clinical data is key to achieving the best therapeutic results.
