Patients suffering from Depression? Bipolar disorder? Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder? ADHD? Schizophrenia?
DNA MAKES US UNIQUE
Neuropharmagen® will help healthcare professionals deliver the right treatment to the right patient
A prior medical diagnosis of a mental health disorder is required.
Always talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns related to your treatment and/or symptoms. Self-medication may have serious effects on your health.
What is Neuropharmagen® and how can it help?
Neuropharmagen® is a CE-marked in vitro diagnostic medical device software intended to help healthcare professionals in the selection and dosing of psychoactive drugs.
Interpreting the patient’s genetic profile, Neuropharmagen® provides information on factors involved in the response and tolerability of drugs indicated for the treatment of depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, among others.
Healthcare professionals can choose between different drug alternatives for each patient, based on a comprehensive pharmacogenetic report specifically developed for mental health.
Why is genetics important?
Patients with mental health conditions often present low response or adverse effects to medication.
Differences in the response to antidepressants and other psychoactive drugs are due, in part, to common genetic variants.

Neuropharmagen® increases the chances of identifying an effective treatment plan without going through multiple ‘trial-and-error’ attempts.
SAFETY
-
Prevention of side effects
Neuropharmagen® helps to anticipate information on drug safety, identifying DNA variants associated with specific adverse events.
OPTIMIZATION
-
Specific dose adjustments
Neuropharmagen® provides dosing recommendations by identifying the patient’s metabolizer profile.
PROVEN CLINICAL UTILITY

Which patients may benefit more from the use of Neuropharmagen®
Non-responders
Neuropharmagen® helps identify a more effective treatment according to the patient’s genetic profile, after the first therapeutic failure.
Medication intolerant patients
Neuropharmagen® proposes other treatments or dose adjustments for improving tolerability.
Particulary sensitive patients
For example, patients who are polymedicated owing to psychiatric and non-psychiatric diseases.
Two years ago, I was diagnosed with severe depression, and after two courses of treatment that did not help me, a Neuropharmagen® test was conducted. I was in a bad condition, I stayed at home all the time and almost never got out of bed. Thanks to this test, my doctor discontinued one of the drugs and adjusted the dosage of the other. Finally, I’ve achieved a positive dynamic, I’ve returned to normal life and work, I want to live again.
My son was diagnosed with ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) a few months ago. We consulted with several specialists before starting medical treatment. Since he is still small, we would not want to put him at risk by trying different medications that may cause side effects, so we decided to do a Neuropharmagen® test. We saw the result from the first day and were satisfied. We recommended this test to all our acquaintances with children suffering from ADHD.
My son has been suffering from schizophrenia since adolescence, and medication has always caused him multiple extrapyramidal symptoms. Thanks to Neuropharmagen® , we were able to conduct the most appropriate treatment and we were able to improve his quality of life.

Learn more about precision medicine
Precision medicine (PM) is a medical model that proposes the customization of healthcare, with medical decisions, treatments, practices, or products being tailored to a subgroup of patients, instead of a one‐drug‐fits‐all model. In PM, diagnostic testing is often employed for selecting appropriate and optimal therapies based on the context of a patient’s genetic information or other molecular or cellular analysis. Tools employed in PM can include molecular diagnostics, imaging, and analytics.
Among the advantages of precision medicine there is a change in emphasis from reactive medicine to preventive medicine, avoiding the progression and chronification of diseases, and helping to prescribe more effective medications avoiding foreseeable side effects.
With many years of clinical research experience behind us, we are pioneers in the application of genomic medicine in the field of mental health, and we are proud to be able to offer innovative solutions to patients suffering from psychiatric conditions.
It is already possible to know how our genetics will affect our health. Pharmacogenetic testing can guide healthcare professionals in choosing the most appropriate drug treatments for their patients.
