The results indicate how your body responds to a certain drug, in relation to the speed of its metabolism, and its ability to reach the site where it needs to exert its action, as well as to trigger the desired response. In other words, they provide information on the degree of effectiveness of a specific medication, or whether or not unwanted side effects will occur to a greater or lesser extent.
In this way, in the results on the tellmeGen platform you can find information about:
- Efficacy: the ability of a drug to produce its effect. Low efficacy indicates low efficiency of the drug in that individual.
- Adverse Reactions: unwanted effects produced by a drug. The risk of different adverse reactions occurring is indicated.
- Dosage: indicates the amount of drug appropriate for its function. A metabolism different from normal may require changes in dosages.
- Drug-drug interaction: some drugs may react with each other. In these situations, the new effects must be taken into account.
