Bringing clinical pharmacogenomics information to pharmacists: a qualitative study of information needs and resource requirements
We used qualitative inquiries to elicit pharmacogenomics information needs and resource requirements of pharmacists. Managing medications for patients with genotypes that impact those medications requires incorporating complex information about genotypes, phenotypes, severity, concomitant medications, guidelines, and evidence to make an informed decision. Pharmacists value concise but thorough information from sources they trust. Pharmacists seek information about the implication of the variant, other drugs affected by the variant, and recommendations for treating that patient.
