There's a DNA test that can tell you which antidepressants are actually likely to work for you, and most people have never heard of it.
For decades, psychiatric medications have been prescribed the same way: try one, wait six weeks, see what happens. If it doesn't work, try another. It's a slow, frustrating process, especially for people who've already been through it two or three times.
Pharmacogenomic testing changes that. A simple cheek swab looks at your actual DNA and shows which medications your body is likely to respond to, and which ones might cause side effects or simply not work. Instead of more guessing, you get real data to work from.
And for the cases where no medication ends up being the right fit, there are non-medication options too. TMS therapy is one of them. At MindBodyPinnacle Health, we offer both, depending on what your results show.
If you've been guessing for years, this might be worth asking about. Appointments available within 24 hours in Laurel, MD, Alexandria, VA, and Washington D.C., plus telehealth.
