Pharmacogenomic testing is a type of genetic testing that helps to determine how an individual's genetic makeup affects their response to medications. The goal is to tailor drug prescriptions and dosages to each person's unique genetic profile to improve efficacy and minimize adverse effects.

The Prescription Match test assesses more than 275 widely prescribed medications, covering a broad range of therapeutic fields such as Psychiatry, Cardiology, Pain Management, Endocrinology, Gastroenterology, Gynecology, Immunology, Infectious Disease, Neurology, Oncology, Ophthalmology, Otolaryngology, Pulmonology, Rheumatology, Urology, and Steroids

Prescription Match collaborates with a network of licensed physicians across all 50 states who can review and authorize your test directly.

After your sample arrives at our lab, the review and analysis process typically takes about 15-20 business days.

Since we have made Prescription Match affordable we do not accept insurance. However, you may be eligible to use your Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA) to cover the cost of your Prescription Match test.

If you chose the PGx Test Only After your results are ready, you’ll receive a detailed pharmacogenomic report that explains how your genetics may relate to certain medications. These results are provided for informational purposes and are designed to support informed discussions with your healthcare provider. You may choose to share your report with your current provider to help guide future medication conversations. If you chose the PGx Test + Doctor Consultation After your results are ready, you’ll receive your pharmacogenomic report and be scheduled for a consultation with a licensed healthcare provider. During the consultation, the provider will review your results with you, explain how they may relate to certain medications, and answer questions. This review is intended to support informed medication decisions and does not replace ongoing care with your primary healthcare provider. Important Note PrescriptionMatch does not diagnose conditions or prescribe medications. All results and consultations are intended to support informed discussions between you and your healthcare provider.

Once your test kit has been received at our lab, you will receive an email confirmation notifying you of its arrival.

Prescription Match offers one of the most comprehensive medication directories available. If your medication isn’t listed, it may be due to a lack of sufficient clinical evidence linking genetic variants to its use. We base our directory on the latest clinical guidelines and recommendations from leading scientific and regulatory bodies, such as the Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Absolutely. Taking the Prescription Match test now can be a proactive step. If you require medication in the future, having your genetic information on hand can help your healthcare provider choose the most suitable medication and dosage tailored to your genetic profile.

Unlike genetic tests that look at hereditary traits, we focus solely on specific genes associated with drug metabolism. Your DNA sample is used only to generate your report and is not retained or used beyond this purpose. Once the analysis is complete, your sample is securely destroyed.
