What is MyCare Psychiatry?

Rapid, accurate, and easy to perform tests

Saladax’s MyCare Psychiatry product line consists of 5 in vitro diagnostic tests which measure drug levels of the 6 most commonly prescribed antipsychotic drugs. These tests are essential diagnostic tools used by Healthcare Professionals (HCPs) to monitor patient’s blood levels of these prescribed drugs.

It’s Important

MyCare Psychiatry provides rapid insights to aid in patient management when it matters most.¹ In light of the serious consequences of unsuccessful treatment, the value of having rapid access to information that may be used to reorient the treatment cannot be overstated. Timely knowledge of antipsychotic serum levels of patients with complicated courses of treatment would allow prescribers to make highly consequential decisions based on data rather than guesswork.

It’s Personalized

Every person’s body handles antipsychotic medications differently. MyCare Psychiatry tests provide personalized drug concentrations that help HCPs make reliable treatment decisions for each patient. MyCare offers data-driven clinical decision support to supplement patient self-report and enhance shared decision-making between you and your patient.
