     Pharmacological compatibility

Why do some medications you take not work as well as expected?

Different people invariably process drugs in different ways and therefore the pharmacogenetics test provides important information on how your body will react to a diverse range of drugs. This provides important information to allow your doctor to prescribe the best drug and adequate dosage for a particular illness you may have. Added benefits include faster recovery, reduced risk of an adverse reaction and reducing the risk of secondary effects.
