Ethnicity and adverse drug reactions

Ethnicity and adverse drug reactions The incidence of adverse drug reactions differs across different ethnic groups. For example, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors are more likely to cause angioedema in black patients, and more likely to cause cough in East Asian patients. We review the evidence for these and other ethnic differences in the incidence of adverse drug reactions, and discuss how they may reflect underlying genetic differences. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Adverse Drug Reaction Bulletin Wolters Kluwer Health

Abstract

The incidence of adverse drug reactions differs across different ethnic groups. For example, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors are more likely to cause angioedema in black patients, and more likely to cause cough in East Asian patients. We review the evidence for these and other ethnic differences in the incidence of adverse drug reactions, and discuss how they may reflect underlying genetic differences.
