Introduction
A simple genetic test can personalize medicine for you and reduce adverse drug reactions?
Adverse Drug Reactions (ADR) describe injurious effects associated with therapeutic drugs at normal dose. Some adverse drug reactions are not very serious, but others cause death, prolong hospitalization, and permanent disability. Millions of people are affected by ADR in the world each year. Although most adverse drug events can be avoided with attentive patient care, some adverse events are difficult to detect or to prevent in a timely manner. More than 1 million Americans are hospitalized due to ADR each year.
