Understanding Your Body’s Response to Blood Thinners
Are you taking Coumarin blood thinners but still worried about blood clots or unexpected bleeding? You’re not alone. Many South Africans struggle with finding the right medication dosage that keeps them safe without causing complications. Our VKORC1 Gene Coumarin Resistance Test provides the clarity you need to manage your cardiovascular health with confidence.
What This Test Reveals About Your Health
The VKORC1 gene plays a crucial role in how your body processes Coumarin-based blood thinners. When this gene doesn’t function normally, your medication might not work effectively, putting you at risk of dangerous blood clots. Alternatively, you could be overly sensitive to the medication, increasing bleeding risks. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your VKORC1 gene to determine exactly how your body responds to Coumarin treatment.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you:
- Experience inconsistent blood clotting results despite regular Coumarin use
- Have a family history of blood clotting disorders or medication resistance
- Need frequent dosage adjustments for your blood thinners
- Have experienced bleeding complications while on Coumarin therapy
- Are starting Coumarin treatment and want to ensure optimal dosing from the beginning
- Live in major South African cities like Johannesburg, Cape Town, or Durban where cardiovascular health management is crucial
Transform Your Cardiovascular Health Management
By understanding your genetic makeup, you can:
- Avoid dangerous complications from incorrect medication dosing
- Receive personalised treatment based on your genetic profile
- Reduce anxiety about medication effectiveness
- Prevent hospitalisations due to clotting or bleeding events
- Save on long-term healthcare costs by avoiding complications
- Gain peace of mind knowing your treatment is optimised for your body
Understanding Your Test Results
Our comprehensive genetic counselling session helps you understand exactly what your results mean for your health. We’ll explain whether you have normal VKORC1 gene function, reduced function requiring higher medication doses, or enhanced sensitivity needing lower doses. More importantly, we’ll create a clear action plan with your healthcare provider to ensure your Coumarin therapy is perfectly tailored to your genetic profile.
