The genetic origin of responses to drugs

British Medical Bulletin, 1995
Individual variation in drug metabolism has been extensively investigated. Population studies have shown that there is a wide range in metabolising ability for all detoxification pathways; the distributions may be unimodal (Gaussian) or polymodal, with subsets of individuals who differ from the majority. These may be poor metabolisers (PM) or extensive
