Abstract:

With over 50 important pharmacogenomic genes, each with multiple variants, and over 2,000 drugs, the potential drug/gene interactions estimates in the hundreds of thousands. It is impractical and virtually impossible to study all potential drug/ gene interactions, let alone incorporating drug/drug/gene and drug/gene/gene interactions. This extensive number of possible drug/gene interactions creates a challenge for implementing pharmacogenomics in practice. Now, through a methodology developed by the author, and based on pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic principles, clinicians can overcome this challenge by accessing known and predicted drug/gene interactions within seconds from a mobile phone, tablet, or computer. The author will demonstrate his recently developed drug/gene interactions tool, and a discussion of the methodology used to deliver known and predicted drug/gene, drug/drug/gene, and drug/gene/gene interactions. Designed to provide immediately actionable information to clinicians, the electronic methodology allows for better informed clinical prescription and patient monitoring decisions. The methodology is readily adaptable for hospital-wide systems and electronic medical records. The methodology will be discussed and examples will be given.
