Pharmacogenomics Genetic Testing is a specialized test that analyzes how an individual’s genetic makeup affects their response to medications. By examining specific genes involved in drug metabolism, absorption, and action, this testing helps predict the effectiveness and potential side effects of various drugs for that person. The goal is to personalize medication choices and dosages to maximize benefits and minimize adverse reactions. Pharmacogenomics testing supports safer, more effective treatments by tailoring therapies based on genetic information, ultimately improving patient outcomes and reducing trial-and-error prescribing in fields like psychiatry, oncology, cardiology, and more.
