Pharmacogenomics and Your Practice
Medicine is fast moving beyond a one-size fits all approach to the era of personalised prescribing. Every patient is unique and so are their genes. Pharmacogenomics or PGx testing is a key tool that investigates drug-gene interactions and unlocks your ability to prescribe a medicine that is likely to have the most efficacious outcome with the fewest side effects.
At a macro level, the cost of adverse drug reactions to the NHS is £2bn. At a patient level, PGx-guided treatment improves response rates by up to 70% in psychiatric cases, while in The Lancet a study found that up to 30% of ADR could be reduced through PGx testing.
We look forward to hosting you in our webinar and explaining how the science works and how to make use of our laboratory.
Background:
Learn where PGx testing came from and how the science has become readily accessible.
Genetics:
How your genes affect the absorption, transportation, metabolism and excretion of drugs.
Case studies:
Hear first hand accounts of patients who have changed their medication, based on PGx results.
Application:
Understand how to embed PGx testing in your practise and improve patient outcomes.
CPD Opportunit:
Enhance your professional skills and support your continuing professional development goals.
Q&A Session:
Engage in a Q&A session where you can ask specific questions about PGx testing.Meet the Speakers
