DNA Narcolepsy Test

Understand the Genetic Factors Behind Narcolepsy

Narcolepsy is a chronic sleep disorder characterized by overwhelming daytime drowsiness and sudden sleep attacks. For many, this condition has a genetic component. A DNA Narcolepsy Test offers a way to explore this genetic link from home.

This is not a diagnostic test, but rather a genetic risk test. Having this variant is a strong indicator of susceptibility, especially for type 1 narcolepsy (which involves cataplexy). It's important to know that not everyone with the gene will develop narcolepsy, and not all narcolepsy cases are linked to this gene. Environmental factors also play a key role.

Key Benefits of Getting Tested:

• Identify Genetic Predisposition: Gain insight into whether you carry the primary gene marker associated with narcolepsy.

• Inform Medical Discussions: Provide your healthcare provider with valuable genetic information that can help guide further diagnostic testing, such as a sleep study (polysomnogram).

• Quick & Non-Invasive: The test uses a simple saliva sample, collected easily in minutes from home.

• Confidential & Secure: Your data is protected, and results are delivered through a private, online portal.

Take a proactive step in understanding your sleep health. Explore your genetic risk and gain clarity.
