What is Pharmacogenetics?
Pharmacogenetics (PGx) is the study of how individuals may respond differently to drugs based on their genetic makeup.
Your unique genetic profile affects how your body processes medications, potentially making them more or less effective, or causing unexpected side effects.
Did You Know?
Nearly everyone is affected by pharmacogenetics, but most people don't know it. Variability in your response to medications can be explained by your genetics.
Genes affect how individuals respond to drugs
Why it Matters
Pharmacogenetics affects nearly everyone, yet most people don't know how their genetics impact their medication response
Real Impact
Your genetics can make drugs less effective or cause unwanted side effects
Common Medications with PGx Guidance
Many everyday medications are affected by your genetics. Here are some examples:

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Gene2Rx pharmacogenetics testing
Whole genome sequencing (WGS): Gene2Rx accepts VCF files from any WGS provider. Popular services include Nebula Genomics, Dante Labs, Sequencing.com, Nucleus Genomics, DNA Complete, and Veritas. If you have a 30x WGS VCF on hand — from any provider — you can upload it directly. WGS offers broader, higher-confidence variant coverage than consumer arrays and is our recommended input for the most accurate pharmacogenetics results.

Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) VCF — upload directly:
We accept
.vcf and .vcf.gz files from any WGS provider. The genome build (GRCh38 or hg19) is auto-detected from the VCF header. Popular providers include:• Nebula Genomics
• Dante Labs
• Sequencing.com
• Nucleus Genomics
• DNA Complete, Veritas, and any other provider that delivers a standard VCF
A $15 WGS processing surcharge applies per report type.
