PharmGKB ondansetron and tropisetron pathways published in Pharmacogenetics and Genomics


The PharmGKB pathways for ondansetron and tropisetron have been published in the June 2019 issue of Pharmacogenetics and Genomics. Ondansetron and tropisetron are serotonin receptor antagonists which are prescribed for their antiemetic activity. After an overview of the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of each drug, the publication discusses the current pharmacogenetic evidence available, some of which has informed the CPIC guidelines for ondansetron and tropisetron.

You can access interactive versions of the Ondansetron Pathway, Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics and the Tropisetron Pathway,Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics at the PharmGKB website.
