Therapeutic drug monitoring is used to measure the level of certain medications in the blood to determine the most suitable dose or to avoid toxic effects
Therapeutic drug monitoring kits from Randox offer excellent overall performance.
Most drugs do not require monitoring of blood levels as the effects can be seen through improved blood pressure, glucose levels or symptomatic relief for instance.
Drugs that are monitored usually have a narrow therapeutic index and work best over a small range.
Below this range, the drug is not effective; above this range, the drug has toxic effects that can be dangerous for the patient.
Monitoring certain drugs is therefore very important, especially in cases where patients take more than one medication, as these can interact.
Randox therapeutic drug kits offer high quality and reliable results.
Therapeutic drug kits are available as ready-to-use liquid reagents with approximately 100 tests per kit.
Analytes available include digoxin, gentamicin, lithium, phenytoin, theophylline, valproic acid, phenobarbital and carbamazepine.
