Pharmacogenetic testing helps tailor medication choices based on your genetic profile. It helps identifies medications less likely to cause negative side effects and it improves safety. This testing speeds up finding the right medication, reducing trial-and-error. The majority of the cost of pharmacogenetic testing is covered by insurance.
