Polymorphism of drugs biotransformation is clinically significant from the point of view of the effectiveness and safety of pharmacotherapy and an increased risk of some illnesses. The paper presents molecular mechanisms and clinical implication of several genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P-450 (CYP) xenobiotics metabolizing enzymes and genetic predisposition to the occurrence of some diseases.
