Pharmacogenetic Testing

Personalized genetic insights that may help guide medication selection and improve treatment decisions.

Pharmacogenetic testing analyzes specific genes that influence how your body processes certain psychiatric medications.

While genetic testing cannot determine which medication will work best, it can provide valuable information about how your body may metabolize certain medications and identify medications that may require dose adjustments or closer monitoring.

Testing may be helpful for individuals who:

• Have experienced multiple medication failures 
• Are sensitive to medication side effects 
• Require several medication changes 
• Want additional information to guide treatment decisions 

Results are reviewed together during a follow-up appointment and incorporated into your overall treatment plan when clinically appropriate.

Ask whether pharmacogenetic testing may be appropriate for you.
