Overview

This genetic test assesses the ABCB1 c.228_231del variant associated with MDR1-related sensitivity to certain medicines in dogs. Dogs with the relevant genotype can react more strongly to ivermectin and other drugs that depend on P-glycoprotein transport. The result helps clarify whether the dog carries zero, one or two copies of the tested variant and supports careful interpretation for medication choices and breeding decisions.
