Summary

The objective of this pilot study is to determine the genetic polymorphism rate of CYP450 2D6 and 2C19 metabolic enzymes in patients with significant adverse effects from antidepressants, compared to a population of patients who had no significant adverse effects from antidepressants metabolized by CYP2D6 and 2C19.

The hypothesis for the proposed research is that the rate of 2D6 and 2C19 alleles that are associated with poor metabolizer status in the treatment-intolerant population will far exceed the rate found in patient population who takes antidepressants without adverse effects.
