I was curious about these, asked, and was told that sure, they can test for levels of neurotransmitters in the blood, but that the results give little clinacally useful information. Ie, if a person is low on say, seratonin- it's hard if not impossible to translate that into specific information about what's going on in the brain or exactly which antidepressant would be useful.
