Clinical Significance:
Individuals with particular genotypes may find their metabolism capabilities for certain prescription drugs range from extremely poor to extremely fast, and may need to avoid or adjust to a higher or lower drug dosage in order to achieve a therapeutic effect. This test analyzes high-evidence markers for genes/loci of known pharmacogenomics value allowing clinicians to gain valuable insight into an individual's ability to metabolize drugs based on their genetic make-up. The pharmacogenomics panel reports genetic information only, currently we are not reporting medication information
