Finding the antidepressant that works best for you can be a frustrating cycle of multiple medication attempts. Repeated trials of different dosages and types of antidepressants get you closer to finding the one that will work for you, but the process often takes a long time, causes unacceptable side effects, or simply doesn’t produce the right result.
Fortunately, there’s a better way. At NeuPath Mind Wellness, we offer GeneSight genetic testing that uses your body’s unique genetic code to match you with the antidepressant medication that will work best for you.
By understanding your genetic makeup, our psychiatrists can tailor the right medication to your body’s specific response profile. Genetic testing helps us identify which medications are most likely to produce the best result for you, while also minimizing negative side effects.
If you have depression, anxiety, PTSD or another mental health condition and you have had mixed results with antidepressants, you are a good candidate for GeneSight testing. GeneSight testing uses your unique genetic makeup to match you with antidepressants that are more likely to work based on your specific markers.
Genetic testing can help identify the most effective antidepressant for you, and it can also help identify antidepressants that are less likely to cause unwanted side effects.
GeneSight is a powerful tool that reduces much of the trial-and-error process common to depression and anxiety treatment.
Research shows that using a genetic test as part of depression treatment can be nearly two times more effective than the old trial-and-error method at alleviating depression and anxiety symptoms.
Depression, anxiety, and other mood disorders are complex conditions and antidepressants are complex pharmaceutical treatments. Give yourself the best chance at success by taking advantage of GeneSight genetic testing at NeuPath Mind Wellness.
