It is well known that individuals vary considerably in their response to medication. Some patients show a substantial therapeutic response to a given drug, while others may not and may even experience adverse side-effects. In addition, certain patients may require considerably higher or lower doses of a medication to achieve maximum benefit. It is recognized that parts of the individual variation in therapeutic response is inherited, and genetic variants are estimated to affect between 20–95% of the response variability. Therapeutic response is therefore potentially predictable by using PGx markers. This project is a comprehensive approach to bring forward PGx tests into routine use in the Faroese Health care system, where this application includes the first steps.
