Summary

The goal of this prospective, randomized clinical trial is to learn whether pharmacogenomic (PGx)-guided comprehensive medication management delivered by pharmacists in community pharmacies will improve antidepressant treatment outcomes. The primary aim is to determine whether comprehensive medication management with review of PGx testing results improves depression symptoms, compared with usual care. Participants 18 years of age or older who have undergone PGx testing (e.g. through an independent biobanking study (Pitt+Me Discovery) who require initiation or adjustment of antidepressant therapy will be randomly assigned to receive either PGx-guided comprehensive medication management or usual care. Those who receive usual care will receive their PGx results at the end of the study. Researchers will compare the groups to assess whether PGx-guided care provided in partnership with community pharmacists and prescribers results in better depression and medication outcomes.
