Abstract
Numerous clinical trials have led to significant advancement in the pharmacological treatment of cardiovascular diseases in the past decades, which have greatly reduced the risk of mortality and morbidity in patients with cardiovascular diseases.1-19 Nonetheless, it is currently impossible for clinicians to precisely identify patients most likely to benefit or experience adverse drug reactions (ADRs) from these drugs. Hence, in clinical practice, the initiation of a pharmacological treatment is primarily based on the efficacy and safety of the drug in a given population and only to a limited extent based on an individual’s potential risks and benefits.
