Pharmacogenomics - Wikipedia
Pharmacogenomics refers to polygenic drug response phenotypes and encompasses transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics. Pharmacokinetics involves the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination of pharmaceutics.
What Is Pharmacogenomics (Pharmacogenetics)? - Cleveland Clinic
Pharmacogenomics is a field of medicine that investigates how a person’s genetic makeup may affect how their body processes certain medications. It involves genetic testing that looks for changes in specific genes.
Pharmacogenomics Fact Sheet - National Human Genome Research Institute
What is pharmacogenomics? Pharmacogenomics combines two scientific areas, pharmacology and genomics, to study how a person’s DNA affects their response to medications. A person’s DNA contains genomic variants that influence how their body handles that medication.
What is pharmacogenomics?: MedlinePlus Genetics
Pharmacogenomics is the study of how genes affect a person’s response to drugs. This field combines pharmacology (the science of drugs) and genomics (the study of genes and their functions) to develop effective, safe medications that can be prescribed based on a person’s genetic makeup.
Pharmacogenomics | Genomics and Your Health | CDC
Pharmacogenomics looks at how your DNA affects the way you respond to drugs. Understanding this can lead to better health outcomes by helping you know ahead of time whether a drug is likely to benefit you and be safe for you to take.
Pharmacogenomics: Precision Medicine and Drug Response
Pharmacogenomics is the use of genomic and other “omic” information to individualize drug selection and drug use in order to avoid adverse drug reactions and to maximize drug efficacy.
Pharmacogenomics: current status and future perspectives
In this Review, Munir Pirmohamed provides an overview of the current state of the pharmacogenomics field, using examples of clinically relevant drug–gene associations, before outlining the steps...
Pharmacogenomics - Understanding Genetics - NCBI Bookshelf
Pharmacogenomics is the study of how an individual’s genetic make-up affects the body’s response to drugs. Pharmacogenomics holds the potential for drugs to be tailored to an individual’s genetic make-up, sometimes referred to as “personalized medicine.”
Overview of pharmacogenomics - UpToDate
This topic provides a practical overview of the field of pharmacogenomics, including the historical context, the different ways in which pharmacogenomic differences can affect the response to drug therapy, an overview of US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved labeling of medications for which genetic testing is recommended, and the ...
What is Pharmacogenomics? | GeneSight
Pharmacogenomics is a field of research that studies how a person’s genes affect how he or she responds to medications. This type of testing may help inform healthcare providers’ medication selection and dosing.
