Abstract

The clinical impact of pharmacogenomics in psychiatry has been limited. Part of the problem is the "mismatch" between the precisions of genotyping and the generally weak clinical databases which have been used. It will be unlikely that pharmacogenomics will reach its promise until an inherent industrialization takes place in which high throughput genotyping is applied to controlled, large scale clinical trials.
