What Is Pharmacogenomics (Pharmacogenetics)? - Cleveland Clinic
Pharmacogenomics (also known as pharmacogenetics) is the study of how our genes affect the way we respond to medications. The word “pharmacogenomics” comes from the words “pharmacology” (the study of the uses and effects of medications) and “genomics” (the study of genes and their functions).
Pharmacogenomics | Genomics and Your Health | CDC
Pharmacogenomics is an important example of the field of precision medicine, which aims to tailor medical treatment to each person or to a group of people. Pharmacogenomics looks at how your DNA affects the way you respond to drugs.
Pharmacogenomics Overview - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf
Pharmacogenetics originated from intermittent genetic studies that focused on drug responses related to specific gene mutations. Over time, as more pharmacogenetic discoveries came to light, the term pharmacogenetics gained prominence after it was coined by German physician Friedrich Vogel in 1959. [1]
Pharmacogenomics Fact Sheet - National Human Genome Research Institute
Pharmacogenomics is a growing area of genomic medicine that uses a patient's genomic information to help healthcare providers select the medications and dosages that are predicted to work best in each patient.
Pharmacogenomics - Wikipedia
The term pharmacogenomics is often used interchangeably with pharmacogenetics. Although both terms relate to drug response based on genetic influences, there are differences between the two.
Principles of Pharmacogenetics - University of Utah
Pharmacogenetics (sometimes called pharmacogenomics) is a field of research that studies how a person’s genes affect how he or she responds to medications. Its long-term goal is to help doctors select the drugs and doses best suited for each person.
Pharmacogenetics : MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia
Pharmacogenetics is the study of how genes affect the way medicines work in a person. In some cases, your health care provider can use the information from pharmacogenetic testing to prescribe medicines that will work best for you with fewer side effects.

Pharmacogenetics - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Pharmacogenetics refers to the study of genetically determined traits affecting the interaction between drug and target in the broadest sense and, in practice, to the study of the influence of single genes on drug action.
Introduction to pharmacogenomics — Knowledge Hub
Pharmacogenomics, also known as pharmacogenetics, explores the ways in which a person’s genome contributes to well-established variations in different people’s responses to certain drugs.
