Case Example: Matching Medications to Patients with Depression Through PGx Testing

Patient Overview

65 year old male with a history of recurrent depression and anxiety. He has had unsuccessful trials with fluoxetine and escitalopram and discontinued these products due to side effects of insomnia and jittery sensations. Attempted a third Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor (SSRI), sertraline, which resulted in weight gain and residual mood symptoms.

Clinician Action

His clinician ordered pharmacogenomics (PGx) testing which revealed he was susceptible to side effects of SSRI medications. Based on these test results, sertraline was replaced with the tricyclic antidepressant nortriptyline.

Clinical Outcome

With these changes to medication regimen, mood and anxiety symptoms abated, allowing a much improved quality of life.
