Psychiatric pharmacogenomic testing in clinical practice
The clinical adoption of psychiatric pharmacogenomic testing has taken place rapidly over the past 7 years. Initially, drug-metabolizing enzyme genes, such as the cytochrome P450 2D6 gene (CYP2D6), were identified. Genotyping the highly variable cytochrome P450 2D6 gene now provides clinicians with the opportunity to identify both poor metabolizers and ultrarapid metabolizers of 2D6 substrate m...
متن کاملPharmacogenomic testing and personalized treatment of depression.
BACKGROUND There is wide variation in antidepressant efficacy and tolerability during the treatment of major depressive disorder, a brain disease associated with significant morbidity and mortality risk. The ability to rapidly identify optimal treatment, thereby shortening the time to symptomatic remission, could reduce these risks and associated costs. CONTENT Up to 42% of variance in antide...
متن کاملPharmacy benefit managers, pharmacies, and pharmacogenomic testing: prescription for progress?
Few would argue that the ability to match individual patients with the safest and most effective drugs and doses would be a major advance for clinical medicine. But while clinicians have been reluctant to routinely use pharmacogenomic analyses to guide their prescribing practices, pharmacy benefit managers and drugstores are proceeding with major pharmacogenetic initiatives.
متن کاملPharmacogenomic testing to guide treatment using antipsychotic medications
This review evaluates the utilization of pharmacogenomic testing to guide treatment with antipsychotic medications as well as the evidence supporting the use of pharmacogenomic testing. There are two basic objectives for using pharmacogenomic testing. The first pharmacogenomic objective is to minimize adverse effects. The second pharmacogenomic objective is to improve clinical outcomes. While a...
متن کاملUpdating the landscape of direct-to-consumer pharmacogenomic testing
Pharmacogenomics has identified important drug-gene interactions that affect the safety and efficacy of medications. Direct-to-consumer genetic testing, when first introduced, included some pharmacogenomic-related genes. The current landscape of pharmacogenomic direct-to-consumer testing is reviewed. Prior published reviews of the literature were updated through February 2017 and a scan of the ...
