Personalised Testing

Personalised Testing in India

How It Works

Evaluation begins with a detailed medication history, clinical review, and identification of drugs with variable patient responses. A blood or saliva sample is collected for targeted genetic analysis and biochemical assays that inform dosing decisions. Where genetics suggest variability, pharmacogenetic testing in India is performed to predict metabolic differences and drug handling.

Parallel blood assays measure enzyme activity, drug levels, or biomarkers to refine predictions about therapeutic response and toxicity. Results are reviewed by clinical pharmacologists, geneticists, and the treating physician to create an evidence-based medication plan. Recommendations may include dose adjustment, alternative agents, enhanced monitoring, or avoidance of drugs predicted to cause adverse events.

For specialty cases, we integrate pharmacokinetic modelling and therapeutic drug monitoring to refine dosing during complex clinical scenarios. Turnaround times vary by test complexity, but rapid reporting options are available for urgent clinical decisions and inpatient needs. All findings are explained plainly and documented with decision support notes to help clinicians implement changes safely and efficiently. Follow-up testing and monitoring ensure adjustments achieve therapeutic goals while minimising toxicity as the patient’s condition evolves.

Benefits

  • Accessing personalised testing in India gives clinicians data to tailor medication choices safely and effectively.

  • Identifies genetic and metabolic markers that inform drug selection, dose adjustments, and monitoring plans for complex patients.

  • Speeds therapeutic decisions by providing rapid, actionable results that avoid trial-and-error prescribing in complex cases.

  • Reduces adverse effects by combining genetic data with drug level monitoring and clinical context for individual patients.

What to Expect

From referral to follow-up, Manipal Hospitals india guides patients through a clear, personalised testing process.

  • Consultation & Diagnosis

    • An initial consultation reviews current medications, treatment history, allergies, and specific concerns to plan appropriate personalised testing pathways and priorities.

  • Pre-test Guidance

    • Counsellors explain testing goals, benefits, and potential limitations, gaining informed consent and setting realistic expectations for results and timelines.

  • Sample Collection

    • Samples such as blood or saliva are collected with careful labelling and secure transport to accredited molecular and pharmacology laboratories.

  • Laboratory Analysis

    • Genetic sequencing, enzyme assays, and drug level measurements are processed with validated protocols to ensure accurate interpretation of findings.

  • Result Review

    • A multidisciplinary team reviews results, contextualises findings to the clinical scenario, and drafts practical recommendations for medication adjustments.

  • Implementation

    • Treating clinicians discuss adjustments with patients, initiate recommended dosing changes, and arrange monitoring plans for effectiveness and adverse events.

  • Follow-up Testing

    • Follow-up testing and therapeutic drug monitoring confirm response and guide further optimisation as medication effects and patient conditions evolve.

  • Long-term Care

    • Data are stored in secure records to inform future prescribing choices and to support lifelong medication safety for each individual patient.
