TY - JOUR T1 - Evaluating pharmacogenetic tests: A case example AU - Freund CL, Gregory DF, Clayton E Y1 - 2004/03/01 N1 - 10.1001/archpedi.158.3.276 JO - Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine SP - 276 EP - 279 VL - 158 IS - 3 N2 - Work in human genetics is revealing genes that affect the safe and effective use of pharmaceuticals. Primary care physicians are already receiving advertisements for tests for these variations that emphasize the value of learning about their patients' susceptibility to adverse reactions in order to avoid them. We propose a strategy for the critical evaluation of such offers to ensure the optimal use of these tests.
