Pharmacoepidemiology: A time for a new multidisciplinary approach to precision medicine

The advent of the genomic age has created a rapid increase in complexity for development and selection drug treatments. A key component precision medicine is use genetic information to improve therapeutic effectiveness drugs prevent potential adverse reactions. Pharmacoepidemiology, as field, uses observational methods evaluate safety treatments populations. Pharmacoepidemiology by virtue its focus, tradition, research orientation can provide appropriate study designs analysis medicine. objective this manuscript demonstrate how pharmacoepidemiology impact shape serve reference pharmacoepidemiologists interested contributing science This paper depicts state with respect need pharmacoepidemiological methods, tools approaches medicine; their skills engage community; recommendations moving forward. We propose new integrated multidisciplinary approach dedicated emerging pharmacoepidemiology.
