What's the, what does the landscape look like when you look in your crystal ball for pharmacogenomics?

Cause it's very fascinating to me and really makes sense is, you know, you get a drug for you that will work for you.

And so they could look at multiple medications with that one swap.

So you can get like a panel, as it were, of medications that would be good for you or ones to avoid because it's not going to do much for you.

Pharmacogenomics.

I wish I had access to that when I was in practice.

And I just want to, I don't know, double piggyback.

on what Dr. Ronda and Dr. Aja were talking about with the ideas that the information that quite honestly, it's not the physician.

We can't, it's just too much.

The pharmacist is really going to be a prime educator.

And I'm glad that a lot of pharmacy folks are stepping up to, to do that because that is something very needed.

Again, we,

Whenever I get in a room with pharmacists, I could just like talk for hours and hours because this stuff is so fascinating.

And I learn a lot.

Like I say, the word of the day for me is pharmacogenomics.

Yes.

Actually, there are a few of them.

I'll kind of unpack them as I see it.

Number one is that when you are, the metaphor, when you're driving along at 120 miles an hour, you're going to miss the exits.

You're not going to be able to appreciate the scenery, things like that.
