Pharmacogenetics (PGX) is the science of how genetic variation affects an individual's response to drugs.
• The right drug
• At the right dose
• At the right time
Dr Veluchamy describes the goal as matching each patient with the correct drug and dose based on their DNA
At Canton Child Neurology, we ensure that the drug choice is therapeutic from day one.
Standard population-based dosing is biologically discordant for 95% of patients who carry at least one genetic variant impacting metabolism.
Preventing toxicity before the first pill is taken
Trial and Error prescribing is clinically obsolete. Precision guidance reduces toxicities and hospitalizations.
The right drug for the right patient at the right dose.

WES is a genomic technique that:
• Selects only the protein‑coding regions of DNA
• Uses high‑throughput sequencing to read those regions
• Identifies genetic variants that may alter protein structure or function
This approach dramatically reduces cost and data volume compared to whole‑genome sequencing while still capturing most clinically relevant mutations

WGS is the process of determining the complete DNA sequence of an organism’s genome in a single effort. That includes:
• All chromosomal DNA
• Mitochondrial DNA
WGS provides a high‑resolution, comprehensive view of genetic variation. It goes far beyond targeted sequencing or whole exome sequencing by capturing:
• Coding regions
• Non‑coding regions
• Structural variants
• Regulatory elements
• Rare or unexpected mutations
