What is a
Pharmacogenomic Test?

Pharmacogenomics (PGx) is the study of how genetic variations influence the way an individual responds to medications.

PGx is now enabling doctors to test for specific genetic changes to predict whether a patient may have a normal response, a poor response, or a higher risk of side effects before prescribing a specific medication.

Tests We Offer

We offer two PGX Tests:

myDNA Psychotropic Test

Covering over 41 psychotropic medications used in clinical practice. Find out more about the Psychotropic test.

myDNA Multiple Category Test

Covering over 160 medications used in clinical practice. Find out more about the Multiple Category Test.

PGX Testing Benefits

  • May help reduce the risk of experiencing medication side effects.

    By testing certain genetic markers, the risk of possible side effects may be predicted even prior to starting the medication. This can help personalize dosage and choice of medication.

  • May reduce some of the guesswork around medication selection.

    PGx testing may help to reduce some of the "trial and error" that can be involved in prescribing medications. The myDNA test provides you with information that can further assist in prescribing an effective medication sooner, potentially saving you and your patient time and money.

  • Results last a lifetime.

    The test results presented in the report will assist you and your patient, now and in the future, to decide if one of the covered medications is right for your patient.

myDNA Psychotropic PGX Test

The myDNA Psychotropic Test is a PGx test that analyzes how certain genetic variations my affect the response to a range of psychotropic medications used in the treatment of depression, anxiety, ADHD, and other mental health conditions.

Our PGx reports are simple and easy for you to follow and share with your patient. All PGx reports include detailed interpretations and recommendations with references to international PGx guidelines for each gene-drug pair, including suggestions of how to adjust dosages, and where appropriate, to select an alternative medication.
