Pharmacogenomics, or pharmacogenetics, is the "branch of genetics which deals with the genetic variability in individual responses to drugs and drug metabolism (biotransformation)."[1]
Drug toxicity
Among drugs frequently cited in adverse drug reactions, 60% are metabolized by enzymes with genetic variations in metabolism. 7% to 22% of randomly selected have such variation.[2]
Examples include:
- The SLCO1B1 Variants and statin-induced myopathy[3]
- Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) patients with HLA-B*1502 allele who take carbamazepine[4].
Drug efficacy
Heart failure and hypertension may be an examples were there are racial variations in responses to drugs. Presumably these variations are due to pharmacogenomics.
