Towards Evidence-Based Implementation of Pharmacogenomics in Southern Africa: Comorbidities and Polypharmacy Profiles across Diseases

2023-06-15

Abstract excerpt

Pharmacogenomics may improve patient care by guiding drug selection and dosing, however this requires prior knowledge of the pharmacogenomics of drugs commonly used in a specific setting. The aim of this study was to identify a preliminary set of pharmacogenetic variants important in Southern Africa. We describe co-morbidities in 3997 patients from Malawi, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. These patient cohorts were inc...
