Discover How Your Genes Affect Medication Response
Are you tired of trial-and-error with medications? Do you worry about side effects or medications not working as expected? The Cytochrome P450 2D6 Genotyping test provides the answers you need for safer, more effective treatment. This breakthrough genetic analysis reveals how your body processes over 25% of commonly prescribed medications, helping you and your doctor make informed decisions about your healthcare journey.
Understanding Your CYP2D6 Genetic Profile
Your CYP2D6 gene plays a crucial role in how your body metabolises medications. Think of it as your body’s personal medication processing system. Some people are ‘rapid metabolisers’ who process medications too quickly, while others are ‘poor metabolisers’ who process them too slowly. This genetic test uses advanced Sanger Sequencing technology to identify your specific genetic variations, providing a clear picture of how your body will respond to various treatments.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you:
- Have experienced unexpected side effects from medications
- Are starting new long-term medication treatments
- Have family members with medication sensitivity issues
- Are taking multiple medications simultaneously
- Have conditions requiring psychiatric medications, pain management, or cardiovascular treatments
- Want to optimise your current medication regimen
Many South Africans discover through this test why certain medications haven’t worked effectively for them, finally providing answers to long-standing health concerns.
Transform Your Medication Experience
By understanding your CYP2D6 genetic profile, you gain:
- Personalised Treatment Plans: Your doctor can prescribe medications that align with your genetic makeup
- Reduced Side Effects: Avoid medications likely to cause adverse reactions
- Optimal Dosing: Receive the right medication at the right dose from the start
- Cost Savings: Prevent wasted money on ineffective medications
- Peace of Mind: Confidence that your treatment is scientifically tailored to you
Understanding Your Results with Confidence
Your comprehensive report will clearly explain your metabolic profile in easy-to-understand language. We categorise results as:
- Poor Metaboliser: Your body processes medications slowly, requiring careful dosing
- Intermediate Metaboliser: Moderate medication processing ability
- Extensive Metaboliser: Normal medication processing (most common)
- Ultrarapid Metaboliser: Your body processes medications very quickly
Our genetic counsellors are available to help you understand your results and discuss them with your healthcare provider. You’re not alone in this journey – we provide the support you need every step of the way.
