Every body reacts differently to medication. While some benefit considerably and recover more quickly from drug treatment, undesirable side effects can lead to serious complications and even fatal consequences in others. The effects of different medications together can also lead to irreparable damage. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A drug enters the bloodstream and is then transported to the target organ. <\/span> The breakdown of the active pharmaceutical ingredient usually takes place in the liver – it is the detoxification center of the human body. The drug is recognized by an endogenous enzyme and prepared for degradation from the bloodstream by a chemical change. The substance (metabolite) resulting from this process is usually inactive or no longer has the same effect as the original drug. The now metabolized drug is then either excreted via the bile or filtered and released into the urine via the kidneys. In medicine, a distinction is made depending on how \u201cnormally\u201d, \u201cquickly\u201d or \u201cslowly\u201d drugs can be processed by the body’s own metabolism. A Beyond DNA analysis and the information obtained can be used to influence the respective drug effect. We have summarized further information on medication by gene<\/em> for you in the Science Medication<\/a> section. Your results can be presented to your attending physician or discussed with one of our Beyond DNA doctors: beratung@beyond-dna.at<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Adverse drug reactions are one of the most common causes of death in the western world, but drugs used to treat some diseases are often unavoidable. In principle, however, any medication can also trigger undesirable side effects<\/strong>, intolerances<\/strong> and severe allergic reactions<\/strong>. Only your genetics can tell you which dosage is right for you. Do you need a higher or lower dosage or should you not take certain ingredients<\/strong> under any circumstances? Your DNA can be used to analyze which active ingredients you can safely take and which you should swap for alternatives. Most procedures to test for drug intolerance<\/strong> are complex and involve an invasive blood test. With Beyond DNA, you can have those metabolic variations<\/strong> and the possible drug intolerances identified simply by taking a saliva sample. Instead of testing the effects of substances on your own body, you can choose the right medication according to your genes.
