Pharmacogenetics is the study of the genes affecting body response to certain specific conditions. It is also known as pharmacogenomics. DNA is transported through the family tree from parents to offspring. The genes of the human body can get affected by the drugs consumed, although the effect may vary from person to person.  

According to the latest technological developments, pharmacogenetic testing can help in identifying the best-suited drugs, dosages, etc., for a particular individual.

The following are the uses of pharmacogenetic testing. One can read more and know about it in detail. 

It can help to find the effectiveness of a particular medicine on your body.
