SNP out of it: Pharmacogenomics for Precision Pain Relief in the Older Adult

Course overview

0202-0000-26-112-L08-P Precision medicine is reshaping the way we treat pain, and pharmacists are at the forefront. This session dives into the science of pharmacogenomics, focusing on how genetic variations like single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) impact the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of common analgesics. You will learn how to interpret genomic data, apply clinical guidelines, and make informed decisions that minimize trial-and-error prescribing. Whether you're new to pharmacogenomics or ready to level up, this session will help you deliver smarter, safer pain relief for your older adult patients.
