First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study looks at whether a pharmacist's review of your medications, combined with your genetic test results, can lead to better outcomes and lower costs. About 600 employees from the University of Pittsburgh and UPMC will take part. Half will get a medication review with genetic info, the other half without. Researchers will compare healthcare costs and how well medications match genetic guidelines.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Pharmacist Personalized Medication Review (PMR) with pharmacogenomic test results

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that adding genetic information to medication reviews helps tailor prescriptions, potentially reducing side effects and healthcare costs.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage study in a specific employee group, so results may not apply broadly. The main goal is cost savings, not a direct health outcome.
