Genotyping aids warfarin dosing

theheart.org

An algorithm incorporating genetic information is helpful in predicting the appropriate initial dose of warfarin in patients who are outliers—that is, the almost 50% of people who require either higher- or lower-than-average doses of the drug, according to the largest and most inclusive study of its kind to date. (International Warfarin Phamacogenetics Consortium. N Engl J Med 2009; 360:753-764.)

Symposier - Warfarin Sensitivity Genotype Test - Physician Application of Results

symposier.com — “Uploaded and Shared in Youtube by: mayoclinic Thomas Moyer, Ph.D., from Mayo Clinic's Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology, describes the four basic categories of patients as identified through this test, and how the doses of the blood-thinner warfarin would typically be adjusted to reflect differences in patients' metabolism of warfarin and also their sensitivity, to prevent stroke or hospitalization due to excessive bleeding.View full resource at symposier.com
