Drug-Gene Interactions: Minimizing Risk with Pharmacogenomics
Every individual responds differently to medications, and their reactions can vary greatly. While a specific drug may be effective for one person with no adverse effects, another individual may experience a negative reaction to the same medication. Pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing enables the identification of patients who are prone to adverse drug reactions, individuals who are more likely to benefit from specific medications and those who may require adjusted dosages. As adverse drug reactions
