PHARMACOGENOMICS: PERSONALIZED MEDICINE BASED ON GENETIC FACTORS.
Main Article Content
Keywords

Abstract
Pharmacogenomics is a rapidly evolving field that combines pharmacology and genomics to develop personalized medicine based on an individual's genetic makeup. By understanding how genetic factors influence an individual's response to medications, healthcare providers can optimize treatment plans to improve efficacy and reduce adverse reactions. This essay explores the concept of pharmacogenomics, its methodology, current research findings, and implications for personalized medicine.
