Product Overview
Pharmigene: Molecular Diagnostics
Can a simple genetic test lead to personalized medicine and reduce adverse drug reactions?
Adverse Drug Reactions (ADR) describe injurious effects associated with therapeutic drugs at normal doses. Some adverse drug reactions are not very serious, but others can cause drug allergy, hypersensitivity, death, prolonged hospitalization, and permanent disability. Millions of people are affected by ADR. Although most adverse drug events can be avoided with attentive patient care, some are difficult to detect/predict and thus hard to prevent in a timely manner. More than 1 million Americans are hospitalized due to ADR each year.
Since the completion of the human genome sequences, personalized medicine based on an individual’s genomic profile is now possible. Some patients with certain genetic markers may be a thousand-fold more likely to develop a severe adverse reaction to a specific drug. Using a companion genetic IVD test to offer a safer and more effective drug for patients has become a reality. Browse through our website for more information.

Why PharmiGENE?
Worldwide Exclusive License
Pharmigene was established in 2005 and funded by venture capital firms and individuals. Our goal is to innovate and commercialize diagnostic tests that enable individuals to be better informed about their genomic makeup and make decisions that better their health. We have licensed exclusive worldwide rights and transferred critical know-how from Academia Sinica relating to the genetic markers associated with adverse drug reactions caused by several popular drugs.
The First One In Taiwan
To achieve the goal of promoting personal health and personalized medicine, we develop professional genetic diagnostic tools to provide people with pre-drug physical tests to avoid adverse side effects of drugs.
Fast & Accurate
We have obtained ISO 13485 and GMP certifications and are manufacturing our DNA genetic tests under the most stringent guideline. Today our DNA genetic tests are available world wide. Specifically several of our tests have obtained IVD clearance from Department of Health in Taiwan.
Quality Reliability Convenience
Our products are always designed, redesigned, developed, manufactured, and packaged with utmost focus on quality, reliability, and user friendliness.
