At Mentia Health and Wellness, we offer pharmacogenetic testing using GeneSight, an innovative tool that helps personalize medication selection for individuals with mental health conditions. GeneSight analyzes how a person's genes may affect their response to specific psychiatric medications, providing valuable insights to guide treatment decisions.
Through a simple genetic test, GeneSight identifies genetic variations that may impact how an individual metabolizes certain medications commonly used to treat depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and other mental health conditions. This information helps our psychiatric nurse practitioners make more informed decisions about medication selection, dosage adjustments, and potential side effects.
By integrating GeneSight testing into our practice, we can optimize medication management, minimize the trial-and-error approach to treatment, and improve outcomes for our clients. Contact us today to learn more about pharmacogenetic testing with GeneSight and how it can benefit your mental health treatment journey.
