Abstract

Pharmacogenomics, the study of how an individual's genetic makeup influences their response to drugs, has revolutionized the field of personalized medicine. Understanding how genetic variations can impact drug metabolism, efficacy, and side effects has the potential to transform the way healthcare is delivered, allowing for more precise and effective treatment strategies tailored to an individual's unique genetic profile. This comprehensive review examines the impact of pharmacogenomics on personalized medicine, exploring the methods used to study genetic variations, the results of research in this field, and the implications for clinical practice. By incorporating pharmacogenomics into personalized medicine, healthcare providers can optimize drug therapy, minimize adverse reactions, and improve patient outcomes.
