Pharmacogenomic (PGx) Consensus Recommendations

These consensus recommendations endorsed by 12 organizations identify key steps to improve equitable pharmacogenomic (PGx) discovery and  implementation. PGx testing is a form of personalized medicine that  helps us understand how inherited genomic variation is associated with the clinical effectiveness or toxicity of drugs. Despite its power to improve patient outcomes it has not been fully implemented, and where it has been implemented it is often done so inequitably.
