摘要: Introduction: Pharmacogenetics is the study of variations in DNA sequence as related to drug response (European Medicines Agency [EMA], 2007). Several gene-drug interactions have been discovered field cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). These can help identify nonresponse drugs, estimate dose requirements or an increased risk developing adverse reactions. An individualized approach based on pharmacogenetic testing will provide physicians and pharmacists with tools for decision making about pharmacotherapy. While pharmacogenetic already part everyday practice oncology, it not widely implemented CVDs. However, the near future, pharmacogenetics probably also play a valuable role this well.
