The AVISE HCQ test is a blood test designed to help monitor hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) or plaquenil levels circulating in your system.

The AVISE MTX test is a unique blood test that provides accurate measurement of the active form of methotrexate (MTX) circulating in your system.
Patients with optimal medication doses tend to have a lower risk for disease flares.
How can AVISE MTX & AVISE HCQ help me manage my condition?
Studies show that patients with optimal levels of medications or medication metabolites, for example MTX metabolites, can have a better response to their treatment than patients below optimal levels. (Dervieux et al. Arthritis Rheum. 2006)
Monitoring your medication levels can help you and your doctor:
- Take better control of your condition and personalize your treatment.
- Assess if your medications are optimized for you.
- Assess if you are a candidate for changes to your therapy.
Why would my medication levels not be optimal?
There could be several factors that could make medication levels fluctuate including:
- Your individual metabolism
- Medication absorption
- Your personal adherence to medications
