  • Abstract:
  • Pharmacogenomics is the study of how a person’s genes affect the way their body responds to medicines. It is a growing area of science that combines pharmacology, which focuses on drugs and their actions, with genomics, which deals with the study of genes. The aim of pharmacogenomics is to make medical treatment safer and more effective by selecting the right drug and the correct dose for each individual based on their genetic makeup. By examining genetic variations across the entire genome, pharmacogenomics helps explain why people respond differently to the same medication.To support the use of pharmacogenomics in healthcare, many tools and resources have been developed to help researchers, doctors, and patients better understand its benefits. In clinical practice, common genetic variations can influence how drugs work in the body, and pharmacogenomics can be used to guide personalized treatment decisions. The application of pharmacogenomics allows healthcare professionals to choose appropriate medicines and adjust doses more accurately. This personalized approach can improve treatment outcomes, reduce harmful drug reactions, lower the risk of illness and death related to medications, and offer a cost-effective way to deliver patient care.
