I tried Genetic Testing for Antidepressants feat. Dr. Laura Briz

Ғылым және технология

I took a genetic test to figure out which antidepressants I should avoid and which would work well for me. To help me understand my results, I sat down with my friend, psychiatrist Dr. Laura Briz, to dig into the details with an actual professional!!

    This is great. My test could not have been more wrong. The first two recommended meds we’re actually dangerous for me. I went to the hospital with Seritonin toxicity (Zoloft) for one, and the second put me in a manic tailspin after taking a baby dosage for 2 day (Abilify). The third(Prozac) did absolutely nothing. The fourth (Lexapto) was stopped because my blood pressure skyrocketed, but was recommended. That was the GeneSight test. $50. My doctor was also very disappointing. To note, I’ve been on 22 SSRIs and SNRIs since 2000 and, and two a few years before that.

    could genetic dna testing for antidepressants help prevent going on a medication to make you gain weight?

    I had a pgx test and found that some of the meds are ones I had reactions to. And the test say they were OK genetically. Unfortunately these test do not take into account organ function that may play a predominantl role in how these meds metabolize.

    I have tried 2 medications zoloft for 5 weeks and prozac for 13 days for anxiety. I had super horrible anxiety and I have had a bad time with these meds. This meds made me have no motivation, less hungry, crying all the time, very sad, wanted to be isolated, so sick i hate it. I want to get this done because I want to get the right meds for me but it seems like these meds just made me so way different almost worse than I was before the meds. I was never depressed now I feel like I am.

    Anna nice of you to bring you friend who seems intelligent I can tell you my experience I had depression and anxiety Gladly depression has gone Just some anxiety It’s strange I never had anxiety before When I had depression I took lexapro I don’t think it really made me human again Maybe less thoughts that all But not happy go lucky So I stopped them Due to side effect I started taking tramadol and wow Depression gone But suffer anxiety if I don’t take tramadol With it I’m super man I feel lexapro caused me anxiety But I suppose it’s better than depression I also want to say Doctors do not know anything about depression and anxiety other than wrong a prescription I can say I take cbd oil as well I feel it’s good for sleep But not sure if it’s helping anxiety just yet
