Abstract
This article provides an introduction to the discipline of pharmacogenetics and discusses the implications of pharmacogenetics research for primary care practice. Examples are given of how genetic information can predict and inform; drug interactions influencing drug efficacy, metabolism, dosing, and toxicity. Caveats on the need for vigilance in the interpretation of pharmacogenetics studies are discussed briefly, together with the need for a convergence of biomolecular research, translational research, education,and policy to promote evidence-based genetic medicine.
