    The Reporting Todays’ Patients and Practitioners Deserve

    DETAILED REPORTING

    Our’ reports feature clear, detailed graphing that makes it easy to identify at a glance which results are out of range and by how much. We plot each patient’s full panel of results against accepted ranges and highlight those measurements that call for special attention. Then we break down each element of the panel separately with bold colored markings that are designed to accelerate your analysis process and ensure that no significant result is overlooked.

  • URINE TOXICOLOGY

    PGX Testing offers comprehensive urine screening services for substance abuse programs, medical offices

    Improves the safety and quality of patient lives

    Our toxicology program improves the safety and quality of patient lives, while limiting the liability of providers.

    Our lab is constantly expanding test panel(s) to stay current with new

    medications, illicit drugs, and controlled substances. Our advanced technology is equipped with the

    industry’s most precise detection levels, to ensure the highest sensitivity and most accurate reporting.

    Increased sensitivity allows for enhanced detection of individual drugs and metabolites using a

    minimal volume of specimen.

    Clear and reliable

    We provide clear and reliable information about patient’s medications to make informed clinical decisions regarding treatment.

    Our Reporting identifies both the drug class and metabolites within that class. Additional liability coverage

    when the provider validates an in-ofce test through our lab.

    Urine toxicology screening is an effective clinical tool for healthcare professionals who need clear and

    reliable information about their patient’s use of prescribed medications, non-prescribed medications or the

    presence of any illicit substances in order to make informed clinical decisions regarding treatment.

    Results enable healthcare professionals to:

    • Identify possible drug on drug interactions

    • Identify certain forms of drug-related behavior

    • Identify any patient diversion efforts

    PGX Testing utilizes an in-office reporting system in order to provide the most accurate and

    easy-to-read reports through our HIPAA compliant physician portal.

  • GENETICS

    The right medication + the right dose=

    Decreased negative side effects.

    As a leader in Personalized Medicine, PGX Testing offers a wide range of testing solutions to help both the patient and physician determine which is the right drug and the right dose regardless of the patients gender, race or age.

    Currently in doctors’ offices all over the world, patients are given medications that either don’t work or have severe side effects. Often, a patient must return to their doctor over and over again until the doctor can find a drug that is right for them. PGX Testing offers a very appealing alternative.

    Imagine a day when you go into your doctor’s office and, after a simple and rapid saliva test of your DNA, your doctor changes her/his mind about a drug considered for you because your genetic test indicates that you could suffer a severe negative reaction to the medication. However, upon further examination of your test results, your doctor finds that you would benefit greatly from a new drug on the market, and that there would be little likelihood that you would react negatively to it. This day has come. Welcome to PGX Testing.

  • How it Works

    broken image

    Every patient is different

     

    Each person responds differently to prescription medications. Our test allows your doctor to deliver a comprehensive report to help manage your medications based on your personal genetic makeup. Choosing medications that are best suited for you, rather than experimenting with medications which could result in negative side effects or drug on drug interactions.

    What is Pharmacogenomics?

     

    Pharmacogenomics is the branch of pharmacology, which deals with the influence of genetic variation on drug response in patients by correlating gene expression or single-nucleotide polymorphisms with a drug’s efficacy or toxicity.
