I find it odd that genetic tests always seem to recommend the newest name-brand-only medication as the best treatment for you.
Olanzapine, which had kept my positive symptoms at bay for years, was determined to be the worst AP for me(also the least expensive). Not surprisingly, Caplyta as well as other name-brand drugs were deemed optimal.
I could play angels advocate and assume the latest meds are the most effective. I'm more cynical that that, however. The test took me off of cheap and effective med for years and replaced it with a med that comes with an info sheet I'm incapable of understanding and has a price before my deductible is met that I'm uncomfortable sharing.
