Find the right ADHD medication without months of trial and error.
Stimulants and non-stimulants are processed by different enzymes. Your DNA determines which ADHD medication works best for your body — and which ones won't.

StanfordCPICADHD medication is a guessing game
Stimulants, non-stimulants, dose changes, side effects. Most people try multiple medications before finding one that actually works.
“Adderall makes me a zombie”
Wrong dose or wrong drug. Ultra-rapid CYP2D6 metabolizers may burn through Adderall before it kicks in. Slow metabolizers may feel overwhelmed by a ‘normal’ dose.
Months of titrating doses
The standard approach is trial and error — start low, increase slowly, switch drugs if it doesn’t work. This can take months while symptoms persist.
Stimulant side effects
Heart racing, can’t sleep, appetite loss, anxiety. These aren’t just ‘adjustment’ issues — they can be signs the medication doesn’t match your metabolism.
“My kid has ADHD”
No parent wants to experiment with their child’s medication. Genetic testing can narrow the options before the first prescription.
Stop guessing. See which ADHD medications match your DNA.

What people discover about their ADHD meds
After years of trying different medications, I finally did genetic testing and found out I have slow COMT and slow MAOA. Changed everything.

Adderall makes me a zombie but Ritalin does nothing. Turns out it was my CYP2D6 the whole time.

My kid has ADHD and I didn’t want to experiment with medications. Genetic testing narrowed it down on the first try.
