ABSTRACT:
Methods and kits for assessing the susceptibility of a patient to antidepressant-induced mania are described. The method involves testing a sample from a patient for the presence of the s variant of the 5HTTLPR polymorphism in the 5HTT gene. The presence of this s variant indicates that the patient is more susceptible to antidepressant-induced mania.
