Addiction Labs Of America Developing Pharmacogenetics Test For Cannabis & Cannabidiol

Addiction Labs of America (Addiction Labs), the laboratory division of American Addiction Centers, is in the early stages of developing a pharmacogenetics test for cannabis and other cannabis products, such as cannabidiol (CBD). As the cannabis market and products like CBD continue to grow in popularity, Dr. Calarco also cautions that it's unlikely CBD will be the panacea for opioid use disorder that many are hoping.

Addiction Labs specializes in pharmacogenetics and already offers testing on more than 150 prescribed medications, mostly in the mental health arena. This information helps doctors prescribe personalized medicine for those with substance use . . .
