Pharmacogenetic testing examines your genetic makeup to determine how you may respond to specific medications. This personalized approach helps optimize drug selection and dosages while minimizing adverse reactions.
How It Works
Using the TEMPUS pharmacogenetic testing platform, we analyze specific genes that influence how your body metabolizes and responds to psychiatric medications. A simple sample collection is all that's needed — results help guide medication decisions with greater precision.
Who Benefits Most
Pharmacogenetic testing is especially valuable for patients who have experienced side effects from medications, haven't responded to standard treatments, are starting psychiatric medication for the first time, or are taking multiple medications and want to optimize their regimen.
What You'll Learn
Your results will show which medications may be most effective for you, which may require dose adjustments, and which may be more likely to cause side effects. This information becomes part of your treatment plan and can guide medication decisions for years to come.
Integrated Care
Pharmacogenetic testing is one tool in a comprehensive treatment approach. I combine genetic insights with clinical assessment, your personal history, and your preferences to create the most effective treatment plan possible.
