You’re unique. Your genetics are unique. MyDNA tests at Calanna Pharmacy help you make better health and wellness choices using the power of your DNA.
Taking the wrong medications, eating the wrong foods, doing the wrong exercise, & taking the wrong supplements for your body can lead to poor results, a constant battle to stay motivated, and frustration when your health isn’t improving.
How would it feel to know what exercises suit your DNA best for maximum results?
How much easier would it be if you knew what foods you should eat and avoid according to your DNA?
How much would it help to have insights into what medications are best for your body type so you know whether a paracetamol or ibuprofen will work better, or what sort of antidepressant you should take, what sort of pain relief is best, or even what sort of beta-blocker is best. What about knowing the impacts of caffeine, or vitamins, or the best sort of exercise to lose weight, and knowing your chances of getting type two diabetes?
Yes, MyDNA tests can help with all of those things and more.
What do our myDNA tests cover?
Through the power of your DNA and the cutting-edge technology of the myDNA Medication & Wellness test, you will discover insights into nutrition, fitness, weight management, skin, vitamins & supplements, over-the-counter medications and also which prescription medicines are most suited to your individual DNA. This insight will help your Health Care Practitioner prescribe the right medicines and dosages for you, and also give you incredible insights into what exercise, foods, nutrition, fitness, weight management, skin, vitamins & supplements are best for your body. The myDNA Medication & Wellness tests use PGx to identify variations in a number of genes that influence responses to medications and healthcare treatments.
The myDNA test concentrates on the genes encoding the metabolising enzymes (i.e. CYP450 enzymes) which determines whether you will have positive or adverse effects to certain medications. The test covers multiple medication categories (currently in excess of over 80 medications) to determine which medications are best for your body type and composition.

What is Pharmacogenomics?
Pharmacogenomics (or PGx) is the study of genetic variations that influence responses to healthcare medications.
Pharmacogenomic testing enables doctors and healthcare professionals to test for specific genetic changes and predict whether a patient may have a normal or poor response, or a higher risk of side effects, before prescribing a specific medication.
