This study tests whether using genetic information in the emergency department can help choose safer medications for patients 40 and older. It focuses on people who frequently visit the ER and are starting a new long-term medication.
This study tests if using genetic information can help doctors choose the right mental health medication or dose. It may help find treatments that work better with fewer side effects.
This study collects blood, urine, and cheek swabs, along with health information, to see how your genes affect your response to medications. You may be eligible if you take many medications or are on blood pressure or depression medication.
This trial checks if genetic testing can help doctors pick safer drugs for you when you are in the hospital or visiting a clinic. If you qualify, you will give a cheek swab and be followed for about 12 weeks.
This study looks at whether a person’s genetic makeup can help choose safer medicines or improve how well treatment works. You may be asked for testing if you’ve had a bad reaction or treatment failure, or if you’re starting a new medicine that is known to be affected by genetics.
This trial checks whether using a genetic (DNA) medication test—done within the last 120 days—can help reduce bad medication reactions and prevent readmissions to the hospital. It may help people whose medications have caused side effects or did not work well.
