Genetic Testing

Precision Medicine for ADHD: How Genetic Testing Optimizes Your Treatment

At Theta ADHD, we believe that no two brains are the same—so why should ADHD treatment be one-size-fits-all?Genetic testing allows us to move beyond trial and error, using cutting-edge science to determine how your body metabolizes medications, processes neurotransmitters, and responds to treatment.

Why Genetic Testing Matters for ADHD

Your genes influence how you respond to ADHD medications, impacting:

✔ Medication Effectiveness – Some individuals break down stimulants too quickly (reducing effectiveness), while others metabolize them too slowly (increasing side effects).


✔ Side Effect Sensitivity – Genetic markers can indicate whether you're prone to anxiety, appetite suppression, or cardiovascular effects from certain ADHD medications.


✔ Neurotransmitter Function – Variations in dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine pathways can affect focus, motivation, and emotional regulation.

How Our Genetic Testing Works

With a simple cheek swab, we analyze key genetic markers that influence:

✅ Your Body’s Response to ADHD Medications – Identifying the most effective options with the least side effects


✅ Dopamine & Norepinephrine Regulation – Understanding how your brain naturally processes these key neurotransmitters


✅ Nutritional & Supplement Needs – Determining if genetic factors contribute to deficiencies that impact focus and energy


✅ Metabolism & Detoxification Pathways – Ensuring your body processes medications efficiently and safely

The Future of ADHD Treatment—Personalized for You

By leveraging genetic insights, we create a customized treatment plan tailored to your unique biology. Whether you’re starting ADHD medication for the first time or struggling with side effects, genetic testing helps us optimize your treatment for maximum effectiveness and minimal trial and error.
