ASSESSMENT: Knowledge was assessed with "check your knowledge" questions, case discussions, and a follow-up questionnaire. Pharmacists evaluated the instructor and the course using an anonymous survey tool. CONCLUSION: This education provided pharmacists with a basic understanding of pharmacogenetics and the ability to apply pharmacogenetics to clinical practice.
