Hello, good people. I hear a lot of positive things about pharmacogenomics. It is great idea to study the influence of one’s genes to a body’s response to drugs. I would like to know if healthcare providers are well educated in this discipline. I think this issue is also very important.

Hi, there. Pharmacogenomics is a different approach to therapy. The today’s knowledge will have to be changed. I am sure that most of healthcare professionals are not familiar with this. Some additional education will be necessary. But since pharmacogenomics is still in development, I doubt that this education will start soon. We’ll see. I hope we will live to see that. I hope this helps. Bye!
