Whatever the situation, Inagene Personalized Insights™ makes it easy to take charge of your health and well-being, and feel better, sooner.
The Inagene Personalized Insights™ Test provides answers to important questions like these:
What gene variants do I carry that may impact my response to medications?
What medications will work best for me?
Which medications should I avoid altogether?
Do I have an increased risk of side effects with certain medications?
Do I need a different dose of certain medications than most?
Is there a specific type or dose of cannabis that would work best for me?
Our Mission:
Help individuals and their healthcare providers determine which drug and dose will work best, with less trial and error.
Those suffering from depression are 3 times more likely to develop chronic pain, and those with chronic pain are 3 times more likely to have depression or anxiety. There is also significant overlap in many of the medications that are used to treat physical pain and mental/psychological health conditions. Inagene is here to help you find the best treatment plan based on your unique genetic profile, with minimal "trial and error", so you can feel better, sooner.

Personalized Insights should be a basic part of our health care. I have wasted hundreds of dollars on medications that didn't work for me. If I had this test before receiving drug after drug I would not have had to suffer through the endless side effects like I did. Please make this available to everyone who needs it!

After taking the test, my doctor and I are now able to avoid certain medications that we had been considering for me. Having the test results makes me feel so much more secure because I know now I won’t have to suffer through medications that I otherwise would have had to. I’m really glad you (Inagene) are doing this - I know it will help a lot of people. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is trying different medications that don’t seem to be working.

What I would say to people thinking of taking this test is “Do it - you will get a lot of great information and it can really help in you and your doctor in deciding which medication you should take. I am really happy with it and the information I was given – it was the right decision for me. It all went very smoothly and was easy to do.

If my doctor and I had this information 20 years ago many of the medications I have been prescribed would not have been, and that time wouldn’t have been wasted suffering on a medication that wasn’t compatible with my DNA when an alternative that was compatible could have been tried. The test helped us adjust the dosage of my antidepressant, and gave us new antidepressant treatment options to try that are compatible with my DNA. It has also already saved me money in experimenting with cannabis treatment because my doctor and I now know what cannabinoids to try. With so much trial and error in prescribing antidepressants, not only will chronic pain and mental health patients benefit with testing prior to being treated, but it will also benefit doctors, costs, and the environment. If this pandemic is teaching us anything it is that we must move forward using the technology we have now!

My daughter has struggled with depression and anxiety for the past 4 years. When first diagnosed we tried many medications with varied results, some worked but the side effects were too great to continue, and others didn't work at all. The effort and time to change medication is tremendous, and an added stress that someone going through anxiety and depression doesn’t need. When I learned about the Inagene test I was hopeful it could be the solution. I spoke to my daughter's doctor who also supported getting the test, as she believes this is the future of medicine. The test kit came quickly, and was extremely easy to use. The report was easy to understand and the results confirmed the category of drugs we were using were not compatible with my daughter’s DNA. The report helped us find a different drug, and her doctor switched her over, leading to a great result! Then my husband, who had side effects from his current anxiety medication, tried switching to her medication at the doctors recommendation (as they share the same DNA) and he had similar positive results. Overall we were extremely impressed with the ease of interpretation and depth of the results, provided in an easy format that you can share with your doctor. Updates are also sent to us when new medications are added. The Inagene test has had a positive impact on our family. We recommend it to anyone who requires medication for anxiety and depression as it will simplify their journey.
