Detail Description

Cytochrome P450 2C19 Genotyping (CYP2C19) Clopidogrel Resistance (*2,*3,*4,*10) Cost INR:6000 Symptoms Diagnosis

Cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) is a gene that is responsible for the metabolism of a variety of drugs, including the antiplatelet agent clopidogrel. Clopidogrel is commonly used to prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke. However, some individuals with a specific variant of the CYP2C19 gene may not metabolize clopidogrel effectively, resulting in a reduced response to the drug. This is known as clopidogrel resistance.
