Most people expect that when they get a prescription filled from a pharmacy, it will be effective and have minimal side effects. Unfortunately that only happens in up to 60% of cases, with genetic makeup playing a large role in whether a specific drug will work or cause certain side effects.
“Pharmacogenetic testing - mapping a person’s genetic makeup - is the most effective way to ensure patients are prescribed drugs which suit their specific DNA profile”. For more information about DNA testing, please visit us in store.
