The Essential Guide to Pharmacogenomics for Medical Practice

The World Guide for Drug Use and Pharmacogenomics (pharmacogenomicsguide.com) is a multidisciplinary, systematic exercise to put in order a myriad of data organized in selected databases and thousands of reports scattered throughout the international literature on genetics, genomics, pharmacology, drug metabolism, therapeutics, and pharmacogenomics, to provide the reader (physicians, geneticists, pharmacists, researchers, health professionals, regulators, etc.) with a body of practical information which is not available in other publications as a whole.

Message from the editor

RAMON CACABELOS 40 As Editor-in-Chief of the 1^st Edition of the World Guide for Drug Use and Pharmacogenomics, it is a pleasure for me to present this monumental work to the scientific and medical communities from whom I would greatly appreciate to receive any feedback and constructive criticism in order to improve the quality and accuracy of the information released in this volume.

I would like to thank all referenced authors and the entities responsible for the databases from which we necessarily obtained the bulk of the documentation, later to be assembled in this Guide.

The final goal of this incipient, extensive, and systematic work is to efficiently serve our patients, by improving diagnostic procedures with the aid of genomic tools, personalizing treatments and minimizing undesirable drug effects by using pharmacogenomic strategies, and ultimately, optimizing therapeutics for a better healthcare model in our society.
