Precision Medicine in Diabetes

Precision medicine tailors treatment based on an individual’s unique genetics, lifestyle, and environment. In diabetes care, this approach focuses on:

• Genetic markers that predict response to medications.
• Personalized dietary and exercise plans based on metabolic profiles.
• Use of pharmacogenomics to optimize drug efficacy and minimize side effects.

Future Impact: Precision medicine aims to move from a “one-size-fits-all” model to highly individualized care, improving outcomes for patients with complex cases of type 2 diabetes.
