CGX Genetic Testing
Genetic testing involves examining your DNA, the chemical database that carries instructions for your body’s functions. Genetic testing can reveal changes (mutations) in your genes that may cause illness or disease.
Pharmacognetic Testing (PGx)
Pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing is a type of genetic test that assesses a patient’s risk of an adverse response or likelihood to respond to a given drug, informing drug selection and dosing.1 As a pillar of the personalized medicine movement, PGx testing is anticipated to be important across all medical specialties,2 but particularly in primary care, where the majority of all drug prescriptions are written.
