This is an investigational genetic test being studied to help guide prescription drug choices for PTSD. It is designed to analyze your DNA to see how your body might process different types of medications.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment. It is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The study wants to find out if using genetic tests helps doctors pick the right medications for PTSD, depression, and anxiety. It also looks at how doctors and patients feel about using these tests.
- Who it's for
- The study is looking for veterans and police officers who are receiving mental health treatment at the St. Joseph's OSI Clinic.
- What's involved
