Genetic Polymorphism and Personalized Medicine Tailoring Treatment to Individuals

Ahmed Berhanu

This article explores the fascinating intersection of genetic polymorphism and personalized medicine, demonstrating how understanding individual genetic variability can revolutionize healthcare. Genetic polymorphism, encompassing single nucleotide polymorphisms and genetic variations, underlies the concept of personalized medicine. This innovative approach empowers healthcare professionals to predict disease susceptibility, optimize drug selection, tailor medication dosages, and customize treatment plans based on a patient’s unique genetic profile. Pharmacogenomics, a key component of personalized medicine, delves into how genetic polymorphism affects drug responses. While personalized medicine holds great promise, challenges like data privacy and ethical considerations must be addressed. In an era of advancing genomics, personalized medicine offers a tailored and more effective future for healthcare.
