GeneSightRx®

GeneSightRx is the first psychiatric pharmacogenetic product from AssureRx Health. This laboratory-developed genetic test uses state-of-the-art technology to measure and analyze clinically important genetic variants affecting response to psychiatric medications in individual patients. The results of the test can help a clinician understand the way a patient's unique genetic makeup can affect how certain psychiatric drugs work for each individual. The analysis is based on pharmacogenetics, FDA-approved manufacturer's drug labels, scientifically valid published reports, and proven pharmacology. Quick turnaround time, combined with a customized report of the patient's genetic makeup, clinical experience, and other factors can help a clinician make personalized drug treatment choices for each individual patient.

Process:

• The patient is diagnosed with a psychiatric disorder and medication therapy is deemed appropriate. A GeneSightRx test is ordered by the clinician through the secure on-line web portal
• A saliva sample is collected using a cheek swab from the patient and shipped overnight to AssureRx Health's CLIA-certified and CAP-accredited laboratory
• The GeneSightRx test is performed and the results are analyzed typically within one business day
• The clinician is emailed that their patient report is ready and accesses the GeneSightRx report through the same secure on-line web portal
• The clinician determines and prescribes the appropriate medication therapy for the patient

• The most commonly prescribed antidepressant and antipsychotic medications arrayed in three color-coded columns indicating the patient's likelihood of appropriate metabolism and response
  
• A detailed report of the patient's genetic variants
• A drug interaction table indicating potential conflicting substances
