Catechol-O-Methyltransferase (COMT) Genotyping

Catechol-O-Methyltransferase (COMT) Genotyping

Test Name: Catechol-O-Methyltransferase (COMT) Genotyping

Purpose:
COMT genotyping identifies genetic variations in the COMT gene, which plays a key role in the breakdown of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine. These variations can influence cognitive function, stress response, pain perception, and drug metabolism.

Why is this Test Recommended?

• To assess genetic factors affecting neurotransmitter metabolism
• To understand individual stress and pain sensitivity
• To support personalized medicine approaches
• To aid in psychiatric and neurological evaluations
• To evaluate potential response to certain medications

Sample Required:

• EDTA Whole Blood / Buccal Swab

Benefits:
✔ Detects COMT gene variants accurately
✔ Supports personalized treatment planning
✔ Helps understand cognitive and behavioral traits
✔ Useful in pharmacogenomic assessments
✔ Provides valuable genetic insights

Who Should Consider This Test?

• Individuals seeking personalized healthcare insights
• Patients undergoing pharmacogenomic evaluation
• Individuals with mood, stress, or pain-related concerns
• Those interested in genetic wellness profiling

Reporting Time:
As per laboratory protocol.
