Aim:
Pharmacists are positioned to provide medication counseling and drug information to patients. This study assessed the knowledge, attitudes and education of over 700 pharmacists concerning pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenetic testing.
Methods:
A multiquestion, online survey was developed to assess healthcare provider knowledge, attitudes and education concerning pharmacogenetic testing.
Results:
More than 90% of pharmacists were interested in learning more about pharmacogenetics and testing, with those with less than 10 years of experience were more likely to want web-based continuing education programs. The pharmacists were unlikely to have had formalized education regarding pharmacogenetics, were very likely to rate their knowledge accurately, and were more likely to have a positive attitude about pharmacogenetics if they had received education regarding pharmacogenetics.
Conclusion:
Most pharmacists were interested in learning more about pharmacogenetic testing.
