Genetic Drug Testing, also known as pharmacogenetic testing, analyses specific genes that influence how medications are absorbed, metabolised, and processed by the body. Each person’s genetic makeup can cause medicines to work differently, even when the same drug and dose are prescribed. Some individuals may experience strong benefits, while others may have little effect or develop serious side effects. The test helps identify genetic variants linked to increased risk of drug hypersensitivity reactions, such as the HLA-B*5701 variant. It also evaluates genes involved in drug metabolism, including those that affect how quickly or slowly a medicine is cleared from the body. This information helps healthcare professionals determine the most appropriate drug and dosage for each individual. Genetic Drug Testing can reduce trial-and-error prescribing and minimise harmful drug reactions. It supports personalised medication management by matching treatments to a patient’s unique genetic profile. The test provides insights into how hundreds of commonly prescribed medications may affect you. By enabling precision medicine, it improves treatment safety, effectiveness, and long-term health outcomes.
