A simple cheek swab reveals how your unique DNA affects the way your body processes medications — giving your clinician the insight needed to prescribe smarter, from day one.
Pharmacogenomics (PGx) is the science of how your DNA affects how your body processes medicines. Different people break down the same medication at very different speeds — and that difference is written in your genes.
Imagine two people taking the same antidepressant at the same dose. One feels great. The other gets fog, fatigue, and side effects. The difference is often genetic. Specific gene variants control enzymes in your liver that determine how quickly a drug is processed — too fast, and it won't work; too slow, and it builds up dangerously. A PGx test maps those variants so your clinician can choose the right medication before you start.
Many patients try 3–5 medications before finding one that works. PGx testing can cut that journey significantly by flagging likely responders and poor metabolisers in advance.
Including CYP2D6, CYP2C19, CYP2B6, CYP3A4 and more — enzymes responsible for processing the majority of psychiatric and common medications.
Poor metabolisers can accumulate dangerously high drug levels. Ultra-rapid metabolisers may find a medication simply doesn't work. Both matter equally.
Results are mapped against CPIC, FDA pharmacogenetic tables, DPWG, and PharmGKB — the same evidence frameworks used by specialist prescribers worldwide.
From ordering to receiving your personalised report — the entire process is designed to be effortless.

Seal your sample in the pre-paid envelope and drop it in any postbox. Our specialist laboratory handles the rest.
Within ~14 days, a comprehensive clinician-ready report is delivered — showing how your genes interact with 40–120+ medications.
Whether you need targeted support for mental health or a complete whole-body picture, there's a test built for you.
Designed specifically for patients undergoing ADHD titration and anyone navigating a mental health diagnosis. Precise medication guidance from day one of treatment.
A complete pharmacogenomic profile across all major drug categories. Perfect for anyone wanting the fullest picture of their medication compatibility — now and for life.
PGx testing is valuable whether you're starting a new treatment or have been on medication for years. Your genes are relevant every single time a prescription is written.
Finding the right ADHD medication and dose can be a long journey. PGx testing helps your prescriber understand which stimulants and non-stimulants your body processes most effectively — shortening titration time.
If you've tried antidepressants or anxiolytics that didn't work, or caused unexpected side effects, your genes may be a key reason. This test gives your clinician a clearer starting point.
Rather than beginning with trial and error, test your genetic profile first. Your clinician can use results to choose a medication your body is more likely to respond well to.
Unexplained drowsiness, poor response, or unusual reactions to standard doses may mean you're a poor or rapid metaboliser. This test explains why.
Taking several medications at once increases interaction risk. The Comprehensive Package identifies how your genes affect each one, supporting safer polypharmacy management.
Your genes don't change. One test gives lifelong insight — useful every time a new medication is prescribed, whether today or in 20 years.
Our comprehensive PGx report gives you actionable, evidence-based guidance to support better prescribing decisions — reducing the burden of trial-and-error.
Clear severity ratings (Mild / Moderate / Serious) with specific CPIC, FDA, and DPWG recommendations mapped to each medication.
Fewer consultations for side effect management or medication switching. Supports confident, first-line prescribing decisions from the outset.
The Mental Health Panel is designed to work alongside our ADHD titration service, helping prescribers make informed decisions from day one of treatment.
Backed by CPIC Level A & B guidelines, FDA pharmacogenetic associations, DPWG, and PharmGKB clinical annotations.
