V158M (rs4680) polymorphism is widely prevalent in the population and was significantly associated with altered effects as observed clinically. This finding suggests valuable insights into the molecular basis of COMT function and its potential impact on neurotransmitter metabolism and related disorders. Large-scale studies delineating the effect of these polymorphisms on various vasopressors are the need of the hour.
