Pharmacogenetics and how it can improve your treatment

Your DNA determines how your body processes medications. This test identifies variants in your genes to optimize drug efficacy and minimize risk.

  • 01

    Your DNA determines how you metabolize drugs

    Variants in enzymes such as CYP2D6, CYP2C19, or CYP2C9 affect how quickly your body processes hundreds of common medications.

  • 02

    Get the drug and dose that fit you best

    Based on your genetic profile, your physician can choose the most effective medication and adjust dosing so you get maximum benefit without unnecessary risk.

  • 03

    Results you can use for life

    Your genome does not change. The pharmacogenetic report you receive today is a health tool you can share with any doctor at any time in the future.

Designed for people who want safer, more effective treatment

  • Patients who have had adverse reactions or unexpected side effects to medications
  • People taking multiple drugs at the same time (polypharmacy)
  • Patients diagnosed with depression, anxiety, chronic pain, or heart disease
  • People who have not responded well to conventional treatments
  • Anyone who wants a pharmacogenetic profile on hand for future medical visits
  • Patients facing surgery or oncology care that involves anesthesia or chemotherapy

What does your pharmacogenetic report look like?

Your report identifies your metabolic phenotype by category and shows which medications are safe, which need dose adjustments, and which you should avoid.

Real experiences from patients and physicians

I had spent three years without finding the right antidepressant. The pharmacogenetic test showed I am a slow CYP2D6 metabolizer. With that information my psychiatrist adjusted my medication and I finally responded to treatment.

Patient · Mental health

As a cardiologist, I now order the test for my patients before prescribing clopidogrel or warfarin. The NGx report is clear, CPIC-based, and it completely changes how I make therapeutic decisions.

Cardiologist · Private hospital, Mexico City

I had a terrible reaction to codeine prescribed after surgery. Later I learned I am an ultra-rapid metabolizer. I wish I had had this test sooner. Now I share it with every doctor I see.

Frequently asked questions about the pharmacogenetic test

Yes, completely. Sample collection uses a cheek swab—no needles or invasive procedures. Genetic analysis is performed in CLIA- and CAP-certified laboratories, with the highest standards of biosafety and data privacy.
Nutrigenetics studies how your genes influence your response to nutrients and your ideal diet. Pharmacogenetics, on the other hand, analyzes how you metabolize medications and predicts your response to specific drugs. Both are branches of precision medicine and complement each other.
No. The test analyzes your DNA, not the current effect of any medication. You can take it even if you are not on any drugs right now. In fact, it is ideal to do it before starting long-term treatment.
Once your payment is confirmed, you will receive your kit within 24–48 hrs. It includes the collection swab, detailed instructions, and a prepaid shipping label to return your sample at no extra cost.
No. The test is a clinical support tool. Your physician interprets the results in the context of your health history and makes therapeutic decisions. That is why we include an interpretation consult with a pharmacogenomics specialist.
Yes. The kit is shipped to your home anywhere in Mexico. Return shipping for your sample is also covered from any state. Results are delivered digitally so you can access them from anywhere.
