title: Using genomics to help predict drug interactions.
abstract: This article proposes using genomic information to help tailor the output of a drug interaction program for a patient. This paper focuses on a particular CYP450 enzyme to illustrate adding genomic information to an existing drug interaction database. The data are formatted as an Extensible Markup Language (XML) document. The additional interaction information based on genomics for a patient is added to an XML document using XML tags. The suggestion is to combine specifics about a patient's genome with genomic information in the drug interactions database to increase the accuracy and details of a drug interaction program.
