Can you send me an email or post your email address in the profile? I'd like to know what demonstrated validity you would need before using a genetic test to help make medication decisions. Right now I could bundle and sell a panel of genetic tests (Costing somewhere between $199 and $499 based on market research) to help psychiatrists make a decision about the first medication to try, but most of the research is one-off studies in limited populations. The 5-HTT one is the only one that's been well replicated; people with the right 5-HTT polymorphism respond to SSRIs.
