For Healthcare Providers

The NextGen PGx Provider Toolkit

Pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing is moving from specialty clinics into everyday prescribing conversations. This page gives physicians, pharmacists, and nurse practitioners a clear picture of what our panel covers, how the process works for patients, and what a report looks like — plus a downloadable one-page kit you can print or share.

Reduce trial-and-error prescribing

Many patients try two or three medications before finding one that works. PGx variants in metabolism and transport genes are one factor that can help explain those differences in response and tolerability.

Medication-specific guidance

Each report pairs the patient's genotypes with plain-language, medication-specific summaries referencing established clinical guideline evidence — built to be read in minutes, not hours.

Patients arrive prepared

Optional board-certified genetic counseling sessions mean patients come to your visit with informed questions, structured findings, and realistic expectations about what PGx does and doesn't tell them.

What the panel covers

The NextGen PGx Complete PGx panel examines well-studied genes involved in drug metabolism, transport, and hypersensitivity risk. Below is a summary of coverage; the full panel and reporting details are included in the sample report.

CYP2D6Antidepressants (e.g., fluoxetine, paroxetine), codeine, tramadol, tamoxifen, metoprolol
CYP2C19Clopidogrel, proton pump inhibitors, escitalopram, voriconazole
CYP2C9 / VKORC1Warfarin, NSAIDs, phenytoin
CYP2B6Efavirenz, bupropion
SLCO1B1Simvastatin-associated myopathy risk
TPMT / NUDT15Thiopurines (azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine)
DPYDFluoropyrimidines (5-FU, capecitabine)
UGT1A1Irinotecan, atazanavir
HLA-B*57:01 / *15:02 / *58:01Abacavir, carbamazepine, allopurinol hypersensitivity

How it works in your practice

1. Patient orders

Your patient orders online at nextgenpgx.com — no clinic paperwork, no insurance claims, no staff time.

2. Sample collected at home

A cheek-swab kit ships to their door with a prepaid return envelope and clear instructions.

3. Results delivered

The report lands in a secure, HIPAA-compliant patient portal, with medication-specific summaries the patient can share with you.

4. Clinical conversation

You review the findings with the patient alongside clinical factors. Optional genetic counseling is available before or after the visit.
