CardioMed Pharmacogenomic Panel

How can you be sure that the heart medication you are taking is the most suitable for you? The CardioMed Pharmacogenomic Panel analyses genes that affect drug response, providing your doctor with the information needed to choose the right medication at the right dose specifically for your genetic profile. This helps optimise treatment efficacy, reduce the risk of side effects, and supports truly personalised cardiovascular care.

What is this screening?

It is a pharmacogenetic (PGx) test that analyses the relationship between your genetic makeup and your body’s response to medications, enabling the optimisation of drug therapy for each individual.

Pharmacogenetic Testing for Cardiovascular Disease

Genetic testing for cardiovascular-related drugs helps identify how your body metabolises and responds to specific medications – allowing doctors to tailor treatments for greater safety and effectiveness.

 

Cardiovascular drugs

  • Clopidogrel (CYP2C19)

Anti-arrhythmic and anti-hypertensive drugs

  • Flecainide, Propafenone (CYP2D6)

Anticoagulants

  • Warfarin (CYP2C9, VKORC1, CYP4F2)

Lipid-lowering agents

  • Atorvastatin, Rosuvastatin, Simvastatin (SLCO1B1, CYP2C9, ABCG2)

Comprehensive Pharmacogenetic Testing for Drug Hypersensitivity

Pharmacogenetics for HLA-B Genotyping with HLA-A*31:01

This genetic test identifies HLA-B and HLA-A gene variants associated with severe adverse drug reactions, enabling safer and more personalised medication use.

 

Anti-gout medication

  • Allopurinol (HLA-B*58:01)

Anticonvulsant medications

  • Carbamazepine, Oxcarbazepine (HLA-B15:02, HLA-A31:01, B75 serotype)

  • Phenytoin, Fosphenytoin (HLA-B*15:02)

  • Lamotrigine (HLA-B*15:02)

Important Information

  • Recommended frequency: once in a lifetime.
