The effectiveness of most medications depends upon genetic factors. Pillcheck pharmacogenetics (PGx) tests for these genetic factors and helps individuals get medication therapy optimized to their DNA for a wide range of conditions.

Matching medications to DNA leads to 30% fewer side effects.

Benefits for employees

Employees and family members get the right medication at the right dose to help them feel better, sooner. Reduces time away from work due to illness and doctor visits.

What our customers are saying

It was a very positive experience: clear instructions, quick response time. I love that the report is updated as new clinical guidelines become available. I have been telling everyone about Pillcheck!

Very thankful that this service exists. Often providers dismiss side effects leaving patients to suffer it out or search for answers on their own.

How can one not consider doing a gene vs medication investigation like the one provided by Pillcheck? We learned many things about our son.

Thank you so much for this service. It’s going a long way in helping to manage my chronic pain condition. It’s a vital step in ensuring I’m as pain-free as possible while remaining as healthy as possible. I am impressed with the thorough feedback received.
