Predicting the effectiveness of diazepam thanks to knowledge of your DNA

Diazepam is a tranquilliser prescribed to treat feelings of anxiety, tension, panic attacks, insomnia, epilepsy and restlessness. The response to diazepam varies from one person to another, however. This means that in some cases it is difficult for doctors to tailor the type of medication – and the dosage – to the individual pa-tient.

Diazepam and DNA analysis

Various enzymes in the body are involved in both the breakdown and activation of drugs. Your response to diazepam is also determined in part by the activity of your enzymes. This means that the effectiveness and side effects of these diazepam can be predicted to some extent on the basis of your genes. DNA analysis can therefore be an important tool in optimising your medication.
