ABSTRACT Testing thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) enzyme activity or genotype prior to thiopurine prescribing is recommended to reduce the risk of moderate to severe—and potentially fatal—myelosuppression in poor or intermediate TPMT metabolizers. Despite this, only about one‐third of individuals prescribed thiopurines in Australia currently receive
