Pharmacogenetic tests in asthma therapy.

Clinics in laboratory medicine - 1 Dec 2008

Yu I-Wen, Bukaveckas Bonny Lewis

Abstract excerpt

beta2-Agonist medications, such as albuterol and salmeterol, are widely used to treat asthma. However, there are a significant number of poor responders. Poor response may present as decreased lung function, and in extreme cases (a small percentage), patients who have asthma are at increased risk for mortality. A common single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the beta2-adrenergic receptor gene (ADRB2) results in...
