What is pharmacogenetic testing?
- Genes refer to the DNA sequences that carry genetic information.
Acting as an inherent "specification" passed from parents to children.
- This "specification" or genetic information helps us understand our constitution, the risk of developing certain diseases,
, and, importantly, it provides critical information regarding medication suitability, such as whether certain medications are high-risk or likely to cause allergic reactions.
- Therefore, pharmacogenetic testing results can provide clinicians with more reference information.

Avoid allergies to specific drugs
Allergic reactions usually have nothing to do with drug dosage and are related to personal constitution.
According to statistics, epilepsy drugs are one of the drugs most likely to cause serious drug allergies. In severe cases, they can cause ulcers on the skin or oral mucosa, such as: Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS)
Fortunately, genetic testing is now available for prevention.



Avoid allergies to specific drugs
Epileptic drugs are among the medications most prone to serious skin adverse reactions, such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome, with numerous documented cases.
The research team identified key factors associated with genetics,and subsequently developed a globally unique genetic testing reagent. This allows the identification of high-risk groups for adverse drug reactions before medication,thereby reducing the risk of severe allergic reactions to epilepsy drugs.

In recent years, the promotion and implementation of pharmacogenetic testing have contributed to a decline in the number of adverse drug reaction cases associated with epilepsy medications.
Our Features
- non-invasive, sampling is done through the oral mucosa.
- AED PGx Test, testing5 Commonly Used Epilepsy Drugs, know in advance whether you are prone to severe allergies to specific epilepsy drugs before taking them.
- For different genes, choose the most suitable gene determination method:
Pharmigene patented testing reagents, Sanger sequencing, Taqman (qPCR)
- Provide paper reports and mobile APP to view electronic reports, and scan the ingredients of pharmacy prescription drugs through the APP,providing medication guidance for clinical reference.

Distinguishing between general allergies and severe drug allergies is crucial
Early symptoms of severe drug allergies may resemble a common cold, making them easy to overlook. If not detected promptly, it can lead to irreversible consequences or harm.
Observing whether there is pain, ulcers, blisters, or extensive redness in mucous membranes such as the mouth, eyes, and anus can help make a determination.
The time when drug allergy symptoms begin to appear may range from 1 hour to more than 1 week after taking the medication.
If you have any discomfort after taking new medicines, you should first deactivate the suspected drug and promptly consult with a doctor.
