Know Your Genetic Risk: MT-RNR2 Gene Chloramphenicol Resistance Test
Are you concerned about how your body reacts to antibiotics? Many South Africans carry genetic variations that can make common antibiotics like chloramphenicol potentially dangerous. Our MT-RNR2 Gene Test gives you the clarity and confidence to make safer medication decisions for yourself and your family.
What This Test Reveals About Your Health
The MT-RNR2 gene plays a crucial role in how your body processes certain antibiotics. When this gene has specific variations, it can lead to increased sensitivity to chloramphenicol, potentially causing serious side effects. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your genetic makeup to identify these risk factors before you ever need antibiotic treatment.
Think of this test as your personal medication safety check – it’s like having a genetic roadmap that helps your doctor choose the right antibiotics for your unique body chemistry.
