Precise Medication Management

Avoid the trial & error process of traditional psychiatric care.

Prevent Side Effects with Genetic Testing

Medication can be a beneficial tool in treating conditions like anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and more. However, finding the right medication and dosage often involves a trial-and-error process.

At Florida Healthcare System, we use genetic testing to eliminate guesswork and help determine which medications your body will respond to best. Our medication management program ensures that you receive the most effective treatment while minimizing side effects, giving you a personalized and data-driven approach to psychiatric care.

Our psychiatric provider will review your medical history, symptoms, and previous treatments to determine if medication is right for you.

  • Step 2: Genetic Testing for Medication Response (Optional but Recommended)

A simple cheek swab reveals how your genes affect medication metabolism, helping to:

- Speed up the treatment process

  • Step 3: Personalized Treatment Plan

We prescribe medication tailored to your genetics and diagnosis.

  • Step 4: Monitoring & Adjustments

Medication Management FAQ

How does genetic testing help with medication management?

Genetic testing analyzes how your body processes psychiatric medications, allowing us to prescribe medications that are most likely to work for you while avoiding those that may cause side effects.

How long does it take for medication to work?

Most psychiatric medications take 2 to 6 weeks to reach full effectiveness, though improvements can be noticed earlier.

What if I experience side effects?

We closely monitor your response to medication and adjust dosages or switch prescriptions if necessary to minimize side effects. Genetic testing can also help prevent unwanted reactions.

Can I stop taking my medication if I feel better?

No. Stopping medication abruptly can cause withdrawal symptoms or relapse. Always consult with your provider before making changes.

Do you prescribe controlled substances?

Yes, but only when medically necessary and with strict monitoring to ensure responsible and safe usage.

Absolutely. Your privacy is our priority, and all evaluations comply with HIPAA regulations.

Coverage varies by insurance provider. Our team will help verify your benefits and discuss out-of-pocket costs if necessary.
