94415-7
LaboratoryOPRM1 gene c.118A>G [Genotype] in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method Nominal
Definition
The patient's genotype (e.g. G/G) for the c.118A>G (rs1799971) variant in the OPRM1 gene. Patients with AG or GG genotypes have a higher responsiveness to opioids and required less analgesic drugs in laboring women when treated with fentanyl in women as compared to genotype AA.[PMID: 18403122][PharmGKB Variant ID: 1183703081]
