Ask your doctor if a "Drug Metabolizing Enzyme Genotyping" test is available to you. To this point doctors have had to use a trial-and-error approach in finding the best drug for each patient as well as the optimum dosage. Now the guesswork will be gone.
One of the kids at work had this done and it's helped some. It's still been an adjustment with the meds but I'm interested in seeing the development of the practice going forward.

It's definitely in its infancy and some doctors seem a bit intimidated by a procedure that can be completely counter to his or her studied experiences. As the procedure becomes more routine, I think we'll see startling results in the general population. There will always be outliers, of course, that will require more intense study.
