Personalised care begins with knowing more

Pharmacogenomics (PGx) testing reveals how your genes affect the way medications work for you, helping your doctor choose safer, more effective treatments faster.

Endorsed by Australian Guidelines (RCPA)

95% of patients have actionable results

One test. Lifetime guidance.

Not all medications work the same for everyone.
Your genes can explain why.

Our Pharmacogenomics test analyses 11 key genes to show how your body may process more than 100 medications across mental health, pain, heart health and digestive conditions.

Mental health

Learn how your genes may influence your response to antidepressants, anxiety medications and ADHD treatments.

Pain management

Learn how your genes may affect your response to opioids, NSAIDs and other pain medications.

Heart health

Learn how your genes may affect your response to common heart medications — including statins, beta-blockers, antiplatelets and blood pressure medicines.

Digestive health

Learn how your genes may influence your response to reflux and other digestive-health medications — including proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and related treatments

Giving your doctor guidance on which options may be safer or more effective to you.
