Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genetic polymorphisms in CYP2C9 account for 10-20% of the variability in warfarin dose requirement. As such CYP2C9 genetic polymorphisms are commonly included in algorithms aimed to optimize warfarin therapy as a way to account for variability in warfarin responsiveness that is due to altered pharmacokinetics. However, most of the currently available pharmacokinetic data were derived from studies...
