The relationship between the pharmacology of antiepileptic drugs and human gene variation: an overview.

Abstract excerpt

Individual differences in clinical responsiveness to antiepileptic drugs are due to a complex interaction between environmental factors and genetic variation. Considerable interest has arisen in exploiting advances in molecular genetics to improve drug therapy for epilepsy and many other diseases; however, practical application of pharmacogenetics has been difficult to realize. Attempts to define gene variants...
