About the benefits and limitations of Color’s Medication Response Genetic Test:
Always talk to your doctor before making any changes to your medications.
Changing medications or dosing on your own could be harmful to your health.
You’ll learn how your genetics may influence your response to certain medications.
Your results will not tell you definitively if a specific medication will not work for you or cause you to experience side effects.
That’s because other factors beyond genetics also influence your response to medications.
When prescribing your medications, your doctor can consider genetic information and non-genetic factors like health history, body weight, and other medications you take that also play a role in how your body processes medications.
Additional important notes:
This test is not intended to inform you about your current state of health, including whether or not you should take a medication or how much you should take.
This test does not diagnose any health conditions and is not a substitute for visiting your health care provider.
Discuss the results of the genetic test with your healthcare provider, including whether the medication label includes information on how to use genetic information to determine dosage.
