    How can DNA help me make better medication choices?
    2025/08/26

    How does genetics influence individual responses to medications and what is pharmacogenomics? Jeri explains the significance of pharmacogenomic testing in personalizing medication management, highlighting its potential to improve patient outcomes and reduce adverse effects. Through real patient stories, the discussion emphasizes the importance of genetic information in prescribing practices and the challenges faced in integrating pharmacogenomics into routine healthcare. We talk about how pharmacogenomics can help in prescribing medications for pain, depression, and acid reflux as well as other conditions.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Pharmacogenomics is the study of how genetics affect medication response.
    • Genetic testing can lead to more effective and safer medication prescriptions.
    • Genetic information can help avoid severe side effects from medications.
    • Pharmacogenomic testing can reduce the trial-and-error approach in medication management.
    • Pharmacogenomics has the potential to save lives and healthcare costs.
    • The future of pharmacogenomics looks promising but faces integration challenges.

    As a pharmacogenomics expert, Jeri Nichols blends over two decades of experience as a pharmacist and genetic counselor to revolutionize personalized medicine. Jeri founded GenePharmer, LLC in 2021, a consulting practice that empowers patients with safer, more effective medication regimens, and often reduces reliance on unnecessary drugs. Throughout her career, her individualized approach, rooted in listening to patients and leveraging genetic insights, has improved countless lives across private practices, medical centers, genetics labs, and community pharmacies.

Shainman is a BRCA1 gene mutation carrier and "previvor. In 2010, she had two prophylactic surgeries to reduce her cancer risk drastically: a nipple-sparing, skin-sparing mastectomy with reconstruction and oophorectomy with a hysterectomy. Cure Magazine, The Jewish Journal, and The Palm Beach Post have featured Shainman's story. She has also appeared on numerous live and taped television and radio segments nationwide. As a digital ambassador for the National Society of Genetic Counselors gene pool, Shainman is considered one of fifteen influencers who have unique perspectives and knowledge in the fields of genetics and genetic counseling. She is an administrator for the largest female-only BRCA support group on social media.

Her older sister Amy is already undergoing chemotherapy for a breast cancer diagnosis. Danielle now contemplates preemptively removing her "ticking time bomb" breasts and reproductive organs before cancer gets her, too. Her decision-making process involves flashbacks of her childhood with absent parents, bizarre anesthesia-induced dreams, and toxic confrontations with her recovering alcoholic mother and self-absorbed 70's TV Western star father.
