Ehm, here they don't do DNA analysis for med metabolism unless you have cancer. It seems to be very expensive. I know I likely am a poor CYP2D6 metabolizer by experience with meds that are only metabolized by CYP2D6.
Most of times doctors are reclutant to give older antidepressant (tricyclic and MAOI) when the newer ones don't work and are more likely to add an antipsychotic or mood stabilizer. I got some beneficial effect form a low dose of a tricyclic one.
