Discussion

Analysis shows patterns of pharmacogenomic testing in adults and children, suggesting significant clinical implications.

Ninety-four point five percent of individuals had actionable pharmacogenomic variants, indicating high clinical relevance.
Drug-gene interactions were identified for current medications in 19.3% of adults and 15.0% of youth, showing the importance of testing.
Barriers include inconsistent integration of pharmacogenomic results into electronic health records, limiting their utility in practice.
Disparities in test ordering correlated with gender and race, highlighting systemic inequities and variability in provider practices.

Zhang et al. (2025) studied this question.
