Pharmacogenomics is another branch of genetics that shows you how your patients metabolize certain classes of medications. As you may know, SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) can lead to drug efficacy or toxicity in > 150 medications. With the average 65 year old taking ~8 prescription medications, understanding how your patient’s unique DNA interacts with their medication is more important than ever.
The benefits of PGx testing are:
