A high number of studies on pharmacogenetics of antidepressants have been published during the past decades. However, contradictory results still limit clinical use of these findings. Future studies should include functional analyses and consider gene-gene and gene-environment interactions. This will aid in facilitating a future use of pharmacogenetics in clinical practice, likely leading to improved patient care.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
