What you need to bring:
When you come in for your Drug and Supplement Interaction Assessment consultation, please bring all the medications, supplements, pills, powders, herbs and capsules you are currently taking. In your initial consultation, True North will review your drug and supplement regimen in detail.

How does it work?
We offer two levels of the Drug and Supplement Interaction Assessment at True North.

Level 1: Your regimen of drugs and supplements will be reviewed and analyzed using the latest research and software to determine:

• Possible health hazards from your current drug
  and supplement regimen
• Potential improvements to your regimen
• Useful information on when and how to take your drugs and supplements to help you achieve maximum health benefits

Level 2: In addition to the Level 1 screening, you
will also take the Detoxigenomic Profile, a sophisticated
lab test that will help further analyze your particular genetic individuality, giving information about your body’s unique ability to metabolize drugs and supplements. This is exceptionally helpful information for people taking several different types of drugs at the same time and provides a more advanced analysis. If you choose the Level 2 option
we will arrange for laboratory testing at your initial
appointment.

After the in-person consultation:
True North will analyze, catalogue and synthesize your data and review the results with you (the follow-up appointment can be conducted in-person or by telephone). Should you add supplements or drugs to your regimen after your initial consultation, your profile can be updated for an additional fee.

Your Results: The results of your assessment will be
presented in two ways: a letter that summarizes True
North’s analysis and a detailed listing of the interactions
between the drugs and supplements you are taking including supporting scientific references. Along with reviewing these yourself, at your request, True North can also provide a copy of your report directly to your health care provider.

You don’t need to be a True North patient or client to take advantage of this offering. To schedule your consultation call us at 207.781.4488.
