Base Pairs Medical

base pairs medical is an independent company working with clia and cap accredited pharmacogenetic testing (pgx) labs. pgx is a simple lab test that is used to determine how a patient’s dna metabolizes specific pharmaceuticals. each patient has a unique genetic code and, because of this, processes different medications either faster or slower than another patient. the historic approach to prescribing medication has been by trial and error. pgx testing eliminates this by guiding a physician to the best class of medication for each patient and also helps guide the dosage that will work best.
