I had the genetic testing done with my pdoc, results were interesting. It wasn't just psych meds that were learned about, I am a rapid metabolizer on some things, a slow metabolizer on others and in some cases I don't process the item at all (folic acid, I have to take the methylated form)..I have to watch out for warfarin and coumadin, and ibuprofen acts as if it is increased in my body (200mg = 250mg). I have a card I carry in my wallet to inform physicians if need be.

I have taken Saphris and was successful with it. I have taken Seroquel and Latuda but have had greater success with saphris
