Recruiting: WA
Summary: PGx-ADAPT is a multi-phase study working with GPs and practice teams to co-design a practical and equitable approach to pharmacogenetics-guided antidepressant prescribing in Western Australian primary care.
The initial phase will explore practice staff knowledge, barriers and workflow needs, and gather feedback on a free GP-designed pharmacogenetics education module. Findings will inform a future implementation trial, including how this approach could work in rural and remote general practice
