Pharmacogenomics Genetic Testing (PGx)

PGx testing is a genetic test that looks for variations in genes that may determine how effective or ineffective drugs may be based on those genes. These known genetic mutations can cause either higher or lower rates of metabolism for known drugs.  We offer a comprehensive menu of pharmacogenetic (PGx) tests in the following categories:

Drug Class                              Gene
Anticoagulant                                VKORC1
Cardio-Vascular Disease              APOE, SLC01B1
Multiple                                          CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP3A4
Neuro                                             ANKK1/ DRD2
Neuro/Psych                                 COMT
Pain                                                OPRM1
Psych                                             CYP2B6, CYP2D6, UGT2B15
Risk Assessment                          Factor II, Factor V Leiden, MTHFR
Transplant                                    SLCO1B1

Gene Tolerance
There are different levels of gene tolerance in their response to pharmaceuticals and medical drugs. When it comes to your health, and if there are some serious drugs that need to be prescribed, you are going to want to ensure that you and your medical physician have a proper understanding of your gene tolerance. That is why you are going to want to come to us here at Next Generation Clinical Lab Testing. We are going to be able to provide you with meaningful insights into your gene tolerance thanks to the pharmacogenomics genetic testing (PGx) services that we offer.
 
Dosages
The proper dosage for a drug can make a big difference for how you feel, how your body responds, and how your body regains optimal health. Here at Next Generation Clinical Lab Testing, we specialize in identifying the proper dosages, and we know that we are going to be able to prevent many drug side effects that are common for drugs. Not to mention, we are going to be able to ensure that you know how the drugs may affect you, even if they are the appropriate dose. Sometimes a drug can be harsh on the body, and there can also be unwanted side effects. However, here at Next Generation Clinical Lab Testing, we are going to be able to tremendously help in minimizing that.
 
Side Effects
One of the biggest advantages about coming to see us here at Next Generation Clinical Lab Testing for your pharmacogenomics genetic testing (PGx) is the fact that we are able to help reduce side effects that are suboptimal. Here at Next Generation Clinical Lab Testing, we know that there is no other team that is going to be able to provide you with such thorough results as we can. This means that there is no other team that is going to be able to help minimize drug side effects quite like us.
