Personalized Medicine
Every individual is unique, and differences among patients should be considered when psychiatric therapies are being determined. Although it seems so simple, personalized medicine is rarely applied to many psychiatric disorders. At its core, personalized treatment is the systematic use of information obtained from the patient to dictate the type and course of treatment.
