Pharmacogenetics:
Pharmacogenetics:
The science and study of the inheritance of characteristic patterns of interaction between chemicals (drugs) and organisms. Pharmacogenetics involves identification and description of such patterns, discriminating them from non-heritable patterns, and elucidation of the mechanism of inheritance. Pharmacogenetic studies illuminate many intraspecific and interspecific similarities, and differences in pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic mechanisms.
