Overview
In psychiatry, personalised medicine in terms of treatment tailored to the individual patient can currently only be based on the knowledge of the mode of action of psychotropic drugs, their pharmacokinetics, and on predictive tests, e.g., QEEG methods. The use of molecular biology, genomics, and proteomics in psychiatry still lags behind other medical fields.
Key words:
personalised medicine, psychiatry, psychopharmacology.
