The Pillcheck DNA Test
After completing Pillcheck’s fast and easy DNA test, you will receive an advanced, personalized report that predicts drug response to most commonly prescribed medications. Share your report with your doctor, who can recommend changes to your treatment.
The Pillcheck test has built-in enhanced sensitivity for accurate results in ethnically diverse populations.
Your report is updated annually for free as new evidence for existing medications and information on new ones becomes available.
Your colour coded report helps identify the right medication at the right dosage from a broad spectrum of drugs.
Pillcheck covers over 200 medications – that’s close to 80% of all prescriptions used to treat a wide variety of medical conditions.
Your report can also provide peace of mind that the medications you are currently taking are the right ones for you.
Personalized Action Plan
A specially-trained pharmacist provides you with your personalized recommendations to share with your doctor.
You and your doctor can then discuss options if necessary.
The Pillcheck service includes a review of the patient’s medications by a clinical pharmacist who is specially trained in pharmacogenetics – the science that Pillcheck is based on.
