Abstract

Pharmacogenomics is leading the path to individualised patient care. This will provide for more effective medications with fewer adverse events and lead to better, healthier lives for our patients. Future discoveries in pharmacogenomics knowledge will ultimately benefit our patients, their families, and the community. As nurses, we must be committed to being lifelong learners of genomic information for our patients now and in the future.
