Amitriptyline or Not, That Is the Question: Pharmacogenetic Testing of CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 Identifies Patients with Low or High Risk for Side Effects in Amitriptyline Therapy

TL;DR: Combined pharmacogenetic testing for CYP2D6 and CYP1D6 genotypes identifies patients with low risk for side effects in amitriptyline therapy and could possibly be used to individualize antidepressive regimens and reduce treatment cost.
Journal ArticleDOI

Performance and Specificity of Monoclonal Immunoassays for Cyclosporine Monitoring: How Specific Is Specific?

TL;DR: Because assay bias cannot be predicted in individual samples, substantially erratic CsA dosing can result and the specificity of CsSA assays for parent C sA remains a major concern.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacogenetics and olanzapine treatment: CYP1A2*1F and serotonergic polymorphisms influence therapeutic outcome.

TL;DR: The data suggest that the CYP1A2*1F/*1F genotypes may be useful for clinical treatment decisions given the fact that olanzapine serum concentrations correlated with treatment response, and side effects and weight gain seem to be more influenced by serotonergic polymorphisms.
