Genetic Pharmacology Service

  • Drugs Tested / Panels

    The Genetic Pharmacology Service for children and adults uses pharmacogenetics to help clinicians customize patient care. We offer pharmacogenetic tests for drugs significantly metabolized by major cytochrome (CYP) P450 drug metabolizing enzymes (CYP2D6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19) and drugs metabolized by TPMT. We also offer a psychiatry drug panel.
