For Providers

If you're a care provider, it's likely that you're increasingly receiving requests for pharmacogenomic testing.

MyTraitRx is an important resource for delivering a valuable and empowering test to your patients. If you're dealing with a patient who is having difficulty with antidepressants or other medications, pharmacogenomic testing may be the factor that allows you to make a breakthrough in care. 

 

MyTraitRx uses a CLIA-certified lab called ImmunoGeno for all of our Pharmacogenomic testing. Results for samples that you submit are evaluated by a pharmacogenomic-certified pharmacist. In addition to a one-page summary, we include a full 36-page series of lab results as part of our patient report.

 

MyTraitRx pharmacogenomic testing can be beneficial for patients with complex medication histories as a result of extreme slow or fast metabolic reactions. With this information in your hands, you can better select medications that are effective and well-tolerated. This will allow you to create the best outcome without lengthy periods of trial and error that can cause a patient increased suffering or discomfort.
