CNSDose® is a proprietary, commercially-available battery of pharmacogenomic tests (CNSDose, LLC).
The test battery includes evaluation of genetic variations in the genes coding for:
1. Cytochrome P450 isoenzymes CYP2D6 and CYP2C19. Other CYP450 isoenzymes are not evaluated as of February 2017.
2. UGT1A1 (UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1) which is a phase II metabolism enzyme
3. Two ATP-binding cassette (ABC) efflux transporters (ABCB1 and ABCC1) that affect the entry of certain molecules across the blood–brain barrier
