What does TPMT GENOTYPING AND TOXICITY TEST (PHARMACOGENOMICS) - (Outlab) measure?
This pharmacogenomic test checks for TPMT gene variants that can affect how the body processes thiopurine medicines. It may be used before or during treatment with drugs such as azathioprine, mercaptopurine, or thioguanine to help assess the likelihood of medicine-related bone marrow toxicity. Results are interpreted alongside the person’s medication history, clinical condition, and other laboratory findings.
