What is precision medication
Cancer is a disease that seriously threatens human health. Tens of thousands of Hong Kong citizens lose their precious lives to cancer every year.
Although traditional cancer treatment methods, such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy, can inhibit the growth of cancer cells, they can also damage normal cells and cause many side effects, such as nausea, hair loss, decreased immunity, etc., which affect the patient's quality of life and treatment effects.
Now, there is a new cancer treatment method that can free you from these troubles, and that is precision medicine technology.
Precision medication is a medical method that selects the most suitable drugs and doses based on personal genes, metabolism, disease and other factors.

Improve the effectiveness of drugs and reduce side effects and adverse reactions.
For example, targeted therapy for cancer involves selecting drugs that inhibit specific signaling pathways or molecules based on the genetic mutations of cancer cells.

Save medical resources and avoid unnecessary medication or over-medication.
For example, patients with atrial fibrillation can use genetic testing to know which blood-thinning drugs are effective for them and reduce the risk of stroke.

Prevent the occurrence of disease or delay its progression.
