Pharmacogenomic Diversity in Psychiatry: Challenges and Opportunities in Africa

2024-01-17

Abstract excerpt

Pharmacogenomic studies on psychiatric drugs have slowly identified genetic variations that influence drug metabolism and treatment effectiveness in patients with mental illness. However, most of these studies have predominantly centered on people of European descent, leaving a substantial knowledge gap on the clinical implications of current pharmacogenomic evidence in multi-ancestry populations such as Africans....
