Mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder affect millions across India, including Hyderabad and major cities like Guntur, Madhapur, Ongole, and Tirupati. While medication is often a key part of treatment, many patients face challenges like ineffective drugs or adverse side effects caused by genetic differences in drug metabolism.

Pharmacogenomics offers a game-changing approach by analyzing your genes to tailor psychiatric medications to your unique biology. With Yoda Diagnostics’ Medome pharmacogenomics panel, personalized mental health treatment is accessible, affordable, and more effective than ever before.

Understanding the Challenge of Treatment-Resistant Depression

· Up to 30-40% of patients with depression do not respond adequately to standard antidepressants.

· Side effects from medication can lead to poor adherence and worsened outcomes.

· Trial-and-error prescription methods delay recovery and increase healthcare costs.

How Pharmacogenomics Helps

Pharmacogenomics testing examines genes related to how your body processes mood-stabilizing drugs, antidepressants, and anti-anxiety medications. This information enables your doctor to:

· Select drugs with the highest likelihood of success

· Adjust doses to minimize side effects

· Avoid medications that could cause harmful reactions

Studies show that PGx-guided treatment plans improve remission rates and shorten recovery times.
