Transform Your Health with DNA-Driven Insights!
What is Pharmacogenomics?
Pharmacogenomics is the study of how your genes affect your response to medications. By understanding your genetic makeup, doctors can prescribe medications that are more effective and have fewer side effects.
Why is Pharmacogenomics Important?
Traditional medicine often takes a one-size-fits-all approach, but this doesn’t work for everyone. With pharmacogenomics, treatment can be tailored to your individual genetic profile, improving outcomes and reducing the risk of adverse reactions.
How It Works
1. Simple Test: A non-invasive saliva sample is used to collect your genetic information.
2. Genetic Analysis: Your DNA is analysed to identify genetic variations that affect drug metabolism.
3. Personalised Report: You receive a detailed report that includes insights into how you respond to various medications.
4. Consultation: A healthcare professional will review the report with you and discuss the best treatment options based on your genetic profile.
Benefits of Pharmacogenomics
– Personalised Treatment: Medications and dosages are tailored to your genetic profile.
– Fewer Side Effects: Reduces the risk of adverse drug reactions.
– Improved Efficacy: Increases the likelihood that the medication will work effectively.
– Informed Decisions: Provides valuable information for you and your healthcare provider.
Real-Life Applications
Pharmacogenomics is used in various fields of medicine, including:
– Cardiology: Optimising treatments for heart conditions.
– Psychiatry: Tailoring medications for mental health disorders.
– Oncology: Choosing the most effective cancer treatments.
– Pain Management: Selecting pain relief medications that are best suited for you.
