Pharmacogenomics could be key to tailoring therapies. Pharmacists can weigh in on medication effectiveness based on patient factors like kidney clearance, nutrition, activity level, and genetics. Thoughtful, individualized therapy requires proper compensation for pharmacists' time.

Many pharmacists are finding job opportunities on the backend, such as with report generation companies and laboratories. Pharmacists support providers by interpreting PGx results, but more training and reimbursement alignment is needed. This is because many providers are not trained to understand this information. Have you felt this?

Every child’s body processes medicine differently. What works safely for one may cause side effects in another.

That’s where pharmacogenomics (PGx) comes in. By using a child’s DNA, doctors can:
✅ Reduce adverse drug reactions
✅ Personalize treatments
✅ Improve overall safety in care

This isn’t the future of medicine—it’s happening right now in pediatric care.

Here’s how it helps ⬇️
1️⃣ Faster relief → skip the trial-and-error guessing game
2️⃣ Personalized prescriptions → meds chosen for YOUR DNA
3️⃣ Fewer side effects → more peace of mind, less frustration
