Brief Summary

The different patients responses to medications vary from dose effectiveness to adverse drug reaction (ADRs). ADRs affect outpatient settings as it account for estimated 1 million emergency department visits and over 3.5 million physician office visits per year. This subsequently results in about 125,000 hospital admissions. Currently, genetic testing conclude recommendation of dose adjustment or drug stop. However, further step is needed toward individually tailored prescription plan. The purpose of this study is to determine if the efficacy of the genetic testing (Pharmacogenomics) combined with the dietary habits and medications history to design an individually tailored prescription plan. This individualized-prescriptions will be tested if to reduce adverse drug reaction and improve pain management in periodontal surgeries. Hence, the current study will recruit subjects planned for two periodontal surgeries and evaluate pain management during and after periodontal surgery as well as post-surgical complication with and without individually tailored prescription plan. In addition, a comparison will be performed on number of drugs added, stopped or had a dose adjustment.

Detailed Description

The objective of this study is to combine pharmacogenomics testing with social, dietary and medications history to formulate individualized-prescription plan and to test the effectiveness of this precession approach to reduce adverse drug reaction and improve pain management during and after periodontal surgeries.

The specific aims of the study are:

• Specific aim 1: To test the efficacy of combining pharmacogenomics, dietary habits as well as social and medical history data to tailor a personalized prescription for each periodontal patient.
• Specific aim 2: To determine the ability of personalized prescription to achieve more efficacious pain management during and after periodontal surgery. The study also aims to determine the effect of this approach in the adjustment of opioid dosages for these patients.
• Specific aim 3: To determine the effect of personalized prescription, using pharmacogenomics tool, on post-surgical complications related to medications.

Self-controlled case series (SCCS) design will be used for the study. After eligibility has been ascertained and consent has been obtained, subjects planned for 2 surgeries will be enrolled in the study. First surgery will be carried out with the standard prescription for medications. For the second surgery, medications will be prescribed based on individualized assessment and pharmacogenomics report for each subject. These medications will be prescribed based on a consult with the periodontal surgeon's and PhamD investigators of the study. Medications that will be assessed in the study are: local anesthetics, IV sedation drugs and analgesics.
