Pharmacogenetic and pharmacogenomic research to date has identified genetic polymorphisms of dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtypes, the serotonin transporter (5-HTT) and metabolic enzymes (cytochrome P450 [CYP] family) as important contributors to the variability in response to psychiatric drugs and the development of drug-induced side effects such as tardive dyskinesia and weight gain.
