Pharmacogenomic Testing
Your unique genetic makeup can be a factor in determining which medications will work best for you. Pharmacogenomic tests provide helpful insight into how your body metabolizes and breaks down certain medications. This can help your provider determine which medication or medication combinations would be more effective as part of a thoughtful and comprehensive treatment plan. Whether you’ve never taken psychiatric medications before, or have experienced less than ideal results with previous medications, genomic testing can help.
The test itself consists of a simple cheek swab that can be performed at home.
