The pharmacogenetics of analgesia

Abstract excerpt

Genomic variations influencing response to pharmacotherapy of pain are under investigation. Candidate genes such as (opioid)-receptors, transporters and other molecules important for pharmacotherapy are discussed. Drug metabolising enzymes represent a further major target of ongoing research in order to identify associations between an individual's genetic profile and drug response (pharmacogenetics)....
